Instrucciones

Reduce the apple cider vinegar (see notes)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease donut pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and all the spices. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, whisk the melted butter, egg, milk, brown sugar, apple sauce, and vanilla extract.

Gradually whisk in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and reduced apple cider until combined and smooth. The batter will be thick and there might be lumps but make sure to not over mix.

Spoon or pipe the batter into donut holes. I recommend using a Ziploc or piping bag for this step, filling only about halfway.

Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly browned and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for about 2-5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack.

While donuts are baking, combine the granulated sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a small bowl. Once donuts are cool, brush each side into melted butter then coat with sugar mixture.

Serve immediately. Donuts are better warm but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 6 days.
