Wonderful for apple lovers. Adapted from the internet. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups flour |
2/3 cup sugar |
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 eggs |
1/3 cup apple cider |
4 tablespoons butter, melted |
vegetable oil (for frying) |
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
3 tablespoons apple cider or 3 tablespoons milk |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and cider. Stir in the melted butter.
2. Make a well in the flour mixture and stir in the wet ingredients.
3. Turn the soft dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat it into a 1/2-inch-high-round.
4. Heat 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot over medium heat.
5. Use a doughnut cutter to make the donoughts.
6. Use a spatula to carefully lower a doughnut into the hot oil. You can cook several at once, just don't crowd them.
7. Once the doughnuts rise to the surface and begin to brown, flip them with the spatula.
8. Remove after 2 to 3 minutes, or when the doughnuts are golden brown.
9. Drain on paper towels.
10. To make the glaze, stir together the confectioners' sugar and the cider (or milk) and spoon the mixture over the doughnuts.
