Equipment
  • donut mold
  • piping bag
Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1.5 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • 1/3 cup Apple Cider
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar (packed)
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 tbsp Butter (melted)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
For the Coating
  • 4 tbsp Butter (melted)
  • 1/3 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
Instructions
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, whisk together the apple cider, brown sugar, egg, 3 tablespoons melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined. The batter will be thick and slightly sticky. Do not overmix.
  • Transfer the batter to a piping bag or zip-top bag and pipe it into a greased donut pan or silicone donut mold, filling each about 3/4 full. You should get about 6 donuts.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 350F. Place the donut mold in the basket and air fry for 9-11 minutes until the donuts are puffed and a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 2 minutes before removing from the mold.
  • Brush each warm donut generously with melted butter, then roll in the combined cinnamon sugar mixture until coated on all sides. Serve warm.
