Directions

  1. Pour apple cider mix into a 1/2 cup measuring cup. Top off with enough sugar to equal 1/2 cup.

  2. Combine sugar mixture, flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl.

  3. Mix milk, egg, and orange zest together in a small bowl. Pour over flour mixture, mix gently until dough comes together in a ball.

  4. Turn dough out onto a floured work surface, pat into a rectangle about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into doughnuts using a floured doughnut cutter.

  5. Fill a large saucepan with oil to a depth 1 1/2 inch, heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a few doughnuts carefully into the hot oil. Fry until deep golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining doughnuts.

Recipe Yield

14 mini donuts plus holes

Recipe Note

Close to the apple picking farm donuts, only cheaper. Dust with confectioners' sugar if desired.
