How to Make Apple Cider Donuts

• In a large pot, bring the apple cider to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes until it thickens and intensifies in flavor.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually stir in the reduced cider, milk, and egg until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
• Optionally, cover your dough and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. This makes it easier to handle when shaping the donuts.
• On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about ½ inch thick. Use a donut cutter or two round cutters to cut out donut shapes, creating a hole in the center.
• Heat the oil in a deep skillet to 350°F. Carefully place the donuts into the hot oil, frying until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
• Preheat your oven to 375°F. Arrange the shaped donuts on a greased baking tray and bake for about 10 minutes or until they’re golden.
• While the donuts are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.
