NEW ENGLAND DOUGHNUTS
We owe thanks to the Pilgrims for introducing doughnuts to the Americas. The doughnut originated in Holland, where it was called olie koeken, which means oil cakes. While the Pilgrins were in Holland awaiting passage to the New World, they learned to make doughnuts and brought this yummy morsel to Plymouth Rock as did the Dutch themselves when they later settled in New Amsterdam. From the New England chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. Cooking time approximate.

BAKED APPLE CIDER DOUGHNUTS
This recipe yields the classic flavor of baked cider doughnuts. For the most traditional result, a doughnut pan is recommended, but you can also bake these off in a muffin pan.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 2 (6-cavity) doughnut pans (or a 12-cup muffin tin) with nonstick spray. In a medium bowl, add flour, baking powder, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and nutmeg and whisk to combine. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream 10 tablespoons/140 grams butter, brown sugar and 1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and mix until well incorporated after each addition, scraping the bowl as necessary. Beat in the vanilla extract.
- Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until incorporated. With the mixer running, add the apple cider in a slow, steady stream and mix to combine. Scrape the bowl well to make sure the batter is homogeneous.
- Spoon the batter into prepared doughnut pans, filling them about 2/3 of the way. (You can also do this using a disposable piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with a 1/2-inch opening cut from one corner.) Bake until evenly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the thickest portion comes out clean, 12 to 15 minutes. Rotate the pans halfway through baking. (If you are making muffins, divide batter evenly between the prepared cups and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, rotating halfway through.)
- While the doughnuts bake, whisk the remaining 1/2 cup/100 grams granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon together in a small bowl to combine. In a separate small bowl, melt the remaining 6 tablespoons butter in the microwave. Let the doughnuts cool for 5 minutes after baking, then unmold them from the pans, brush with the melted butter and dredge them in the cinnamon sugar while they are still warm. Serve immediately, or let cool to room temperature.

NEW ENGLAND DOUGHNUTS
Another recipe my mother used to make, usually in the fall. What a treat is was to come home from school and smell fresh hot doughnuts in the kitchen, we usually just dusted them with powdered sugar or powdered sugar and cinnamon powder. Made them again for the first time in about 20 years....brings back memories!

DOUGHNUTS
Homemade doughnuts are a bit of a project, but they're less work than you might think, and the result is a truly great, hot, crisp doughnut. Once you've mastered this basic recipe for a fluffy, yeasted doughnut, you can do pretty much anything you like in terms of glazes, toppings and fillings.

Steps:
- Heat the milk until it is warm but not hot, about 90 degrees. In a large bowl, combine it with the yeast. Stir lightly, and let sit until the mixture is foamy, about 5 minutes.
- Using an electric mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, beat the eggs, butter, sugar and salt into the yeast mixture. Add half of the flour (2 cups plus 2 tablespoons), and mix until combined, then mix in the rest of the flour until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Add more flour, about 2 tablespoons at a time, if the dough is too wet. If you're using an electric mixer, the dough will probably become too thick to beat; when it does, transfer it to a floured surface, and gently knead it until smooth. Grease a large bowl with a little oil. Transfer the dough to the bowl, and cover. Let rise at room temperature until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.
- Turn the dough out onto a well-floured surface, and roll it to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut out the doughnuts with a doughnut cutter, concentric cookie cutters or a drinking glass and a shot glass (the larger one should be about 3 inches in diameter), flouring the cutters as you go. Reserve the doughnut holes. If you're making filled doughnuts, don't cut out the middle. Knead any scraps together, being careful not to overwork, and let rest for a few minutes before repeating the process.
- Put the doughnuts on two floured baking sheets so that there is plenty of room between each one. Cover with a kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm place until they are slightly puffed up and delicate, about 45 minutes. If your kitchen isn't warm, heat the oven to 200 at the beginning of this step, then turn off the heat, put the baking sheets in the oven and leave the door ajar.
- About 15 minutes before the doughnuts are done rising, put the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, and heat it to 375. Meanwhile, line cooling racks, baking sheets or plates with paper towels.
- Carefully add the doughnuts to the oil, a few at a time. If they're too delicate to pick up with your fingers (they may be this way only if you rose them in the oven), use a metal spatula to pick them up and slide them into the oil. It's O.K. if they deflate a bit; they'll puff back up as they fry. When the bottoms are deep golden, after 45 seconds to a minute, use a slotted spoon to flip; cook until they're deep golden all over. Doughnut holes cook faster. Transfer the doughnuts to the prepared plates or racks, and repeat with the rest of the dough, adjusting the heat as needed to keep the oil at 375. Glaze or fill as follows, and serve as soon as possible.

- While you prepare the dough, begin heating the lard (best flavor), shortening (less saturated fat but also less flavor), or vegetable oil (probably the healthiest alternative but if you're doing these for flavor, this is not the choice to make).
- An 8-quart stock pot is an appropriate size cooking container., Slowly start to heat melt/heat the fat over medium heat; you want it to reach somewhere between 365°F and 375°F before you begin to cook., Beat together the eggs, buttermilk, sugar and lemon oil or zest until light.
- In a separate bowl, blend together the dry ingredients., Melt the butter, but make sure it's not excessively hot.

- Cut 2 tablespoons of the unsalted butter into cubes and place in a small bowl. Let sit at room temperature until softened.
- Pour 6 tablespoons of the whole milk into a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until just warm to the touch, about 10 seconds. Sprinkle with 1 packet active dry yeast and let sit until bubbly and foamy, about 5 minutes.
- Place 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of the kosher salt in the bowl of a stand mixer and whisk to combine.
- Add the 2 tablespoons room temperature unsalted butter. Mix on medium-low speed until incorporated, about 1 minute. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until the dough is smooth and elastic, 4 to 5 minutes more.
- Coat a large bowl with vegetable oil. Using your hands, gather the dough into a ball. Place in the bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let sit in a warm spot until almost doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
- Place the remaining 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar, remaining 4 large egg yolks, 1/4 cup cornstarch, and 1/8 teaspoon of the kosher salt in a small saucepan and whisk until combined and lightened in color.
- Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the butter melts and the mixture comes to a boil, about 8 minutes. Let boil, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom of the saucepan to make sure nothing sticks, until thickened, about 1 minute.
- Press a sheet of plastic wrap directly onto the pastry cream to prevent a skin from forming. Let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until completely cooled, about 1 hour.
- Lightly dust a work surface with all-purpose flour. Place the dough on the surface and roll out with a rolling pin until about 1/2-inch thick. Use a 3-inch round cutter and cut out as many rounds as you can.
- Heat 6 cups vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until 350°F. Meanwhile, fit a wire rack onto a baking sheet.
