Ingredients
Serves 24
QuantityIngredientAdd
2 c. Hy-Vee all-purpose flour
3 tsp. apple pie spice, divided
1 ½ tsp. Hy-Vee baking powder
1 tsp. fine kosher salt
¼ tsp. Hy-Vee baking soda
1 c. Hy-Vee unsalted butter, softened
¾ c. Hy-Vee packed light brown sugar
1 ¼ c. Hy-Vee granulated sugar, divided
1 tsp. Hy-Vee pure vanilla extract
2 Hy-Vee large eggs
1 ¼ c. cups 100% cold pressed apple cider

Things To Grab

  • Hy-Vee nonstick cooking spray
  • 2 nonstick six-unit donut pans
  • Whisk
  • 2 medium bowls
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Silicone spatula
  • Electric mixer
  • Spoon or piping bag
  • Toothpick
  • Wire cooling rack

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 2 nonstick six-unit donut pans with cooking spray.

  2. Whisk together flour, 2 tsp. apple pie spice, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl; set aside.

  3. Combine butter, brown sugar, ¾ cup granulated sugar and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

  4. Add flour mixture and apple cider; beat on low just until combined. Spoon or pipe batter into prepared pans, filling about three-fourths full. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near centers comes out clean.

  5. Meanwhile, stir together remaining ½ cup granulated sugar and 2 tsp. apple pie spice in a medium bowl.

  6. When donuts are done, cool 5 minutes in pans on a wire rack. Remove donuts from pans; coat both sides of each donut with sugar mixture.  Repeat with remaining batter to make 12 additional donuts. Serve warm.
