How to make Apple Cider Baked Donuts

• Pour 1 ½ cups of apple cider in a sauce pan and bring it to boil. Then reduce the heat to medium/low and simmer the liquid for about 20 minutes until you get ½ cup of reduced liquid.
• When done, let it cool off before adding it to the batter.
• In a medium size mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown and granulated sugar, an egg, vanilla extract, buttermilk and reduced and chilled apple cider.
• In another mixing bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, apple pie spice, and salt.
• Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until smooth consistency.
• Transfer the mixture to a piping bag, snip the tip of the bag and pipe the mixture into the greased donut pan. Fill it only about halfway.
• Bake donuts for 10 minutes at 350°F.
• When done, take them out of the oven, let them sit in the donut pan for 3-5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
• To coat, dip the donuts in melted butter or brush with baking brush from both sides.
• In a smaller mixing bowl, mix together granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and apple pie spice and dip the buttered donuts into the mixture. Make sure they are covered from all the sides.
• Let them dry on the wire rack, then transfer to an air tight container.
