Appledoughnuts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 12-cavity mini doughnut pans.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a large bowl; mix together with a fork until combined. Add shortening and mix with the fork until broken up into small clumps.
• Mix together apples, milk, and eggs in a separate bowl. Add to flour mixture and stir just until blended. Spoon batter into the prepared doughnut pans.
• Bake doughnuts in the preheated oven until slightly browned on the bottoms, about 10 minutes. Remove from pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• While doughnuts are cooling, place melted butter for topping in a shallow bowl. Mix together 1 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in another shallow bowl. Dip cooled doughnuts in butter and then in sugar mixture to coat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and sugar.
• Cut in shortening.
• Mix in egg, milk and apples.
• Fill greased muffing pans or doughnut baking pan 2/3 full with batter.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
• While they are still warm, roll in 1/2 cup melted butter and then roll in cinnamon-sugar (1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/3 cup sugar).

Steps:

• Slice the top and bottom from each apple and discard. Slice the apples into 1/2-inch circles. Use a biscuit cutter or small melon baller to cut a hole in the center of each to make a "donut."
• Put the chocolate-hazelnut spread and peanut butter in separate pastry bags (or put in separate ziptop bags and snip off a corner).
• Top the apple rings with either the chocolate-hazelnut spread, peanut butter or yogurt. (Pipe the chocolate-hazelnut spread or peanut butter, then spread carefully with a knife or offset spatula; spread the yogurt with a spoon.) Garnish each with a variety of the toppings.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon.
• Make a well in the center.
• In a small bowl, cream together the sugar and butter, then beat in the egg.
• Add the apple juice, milk, and vanilla to the creamed mixture, and beat all together.
• Pour mixture into the center of the dry ingredients and stir until smooth.
• Peel, core, and finely chop the apple, then stir it into the batter.
• Cover and chill the dough for 1 hour.
• Place half the dough on a floured board; knead lightly, and roll out to approximately 3/8-inch thick.
• Cut with a floured 2 1/2-inch doughnut cutter.
• Heat the oil to 375°F in a wok or skillet; fry the dough for 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden brown (do not overcrowd); drain on absorbent paper.
• When cool, dust doughnuts with a mixture of 1 cup confectioners sugar mixed with 1 tbsp cinnamon placed in a sieve; shake off excess.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray four 6-cavity donut pans with nonstick baking spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and lemon zest. Whisk for 30 seconds to distribute the leavening.
• In a liquid measure cup, combine the cider, buttermilk and vanilla.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Mix on high until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl.
• Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well between each addition. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl.
• With the mixer on low, add one-third of the flour mixture and then half of the cider mixture. Continue alternating between the two until the batter is just combined. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and, using a large rubber spatula, fold the batter a few times to make sure the ingredients are well distributed.
• Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a large zip-close bag with a corner snipped off, and pipe into two of the donut pans. Top each pan with a second, inverted pan and use clips to hold them in place. (Some pans come with clips; otherwise, use metal hardware or paper clips.) Bake until the cake just springs back when gently touched, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Turn the donuts out onto a cooling rack; immediately brush with melted butter, then dip in the cinnamon sugar.

Steps:

• Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt onto piece of waxed paper.
• In a large bowl, use an electric mixer at medium speed to beat together sugar, brown sugar and eggs until fluffy. Beat in 2 tablespoon oil. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture, alternately with milk, beginning and ending with dry ingredients, until well blended. Stir in applesauce and vanilla.
• Carefully drop batter by level tablespoons, 3 or 4 at a time, into hot oil. Do not overcrowd pan or oil may overflow. Fry, turning once with tongs, for 3 minutes or until golden. Transfer with tongs to paper toweling to drain. Cool completely.

Steps:

• Mix the soft cheese with the honey and set aside. Peel the apples, then slice each through the core into five or six rings, about 1cm thick. Use an apple corer or small round biscuit cutter to stamp out a circle from the middle of each slice, removing the core and creating 'doughnut' shapes. Pat the slices dry using kitchen paper - they should be as dry as possible to help the toppings stick.
• Spread some nut butter over the slices, if using, then top with the sweetened soft cheese. Decorate with the sprinkles and serve.

Steps:

• For the batter, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
• Mix in the egg and buttermilk.
• Gradually stir in the milk.
• Next, core the apples and slice vertically into doughnut-size rings. Each apple should give you about 3 rings.
• Heat the oil in a deep frying pan to 180˚C (350°F).
• Coat each apple ring in the batter.
• Carefully lay the doughnuts into the oil and fry for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towel before coating in sugar.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until crumbly, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla., Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Combine evaporated milk and lemon juice; let stand 1 minute. Stir in apple butter. Add flour mixture to the creamed mixture alternately with apple butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours., Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 5-6 times. Roll to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. cutter., In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry doughnuts, a few at a time, until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels., In a small heavy saucepan, cook butter over medium heat until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Pour into a small bowl; beat in the confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla. Frost doughnuts.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, oil, buttermilk and cider. Whisk in the egg and applesauce (see recipe below).
• In a small bowl, sift two and a half cups of the flour with the mace, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda. Add this mixture to the applesauce mixture and mix to make a soft dough, adding additional flour as needed.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and dust liberally with flour. Flour your hands and knead the dough, adding additional flour as necessary, to make a soft dough that is no longer sticky. Roll the dough to one-half-inch thickness and cut with a doughnut cutter. Place the cut doughnuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and place in the refrigerator. The cut doughnuts can be refrigerated for several hours, if desired.
• Pour at least two inches of oil into a deep pan and bring it to 375 degrees over moderate heat. Dip a spatula into the hot oil and slide the doughnuts into the oil three or four at a time and fry them a minute or so on each side, until golden brown. They should take about three minutes each to fry. If they brown in less time than that, your oil is too hot.
• Lift the fried doughnuts out of the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on several thicknesses of paper towel to drain. Dust them with sifted confectioners' sugar while they are still warm.
