Time

Yield

2 dozen

Ingredients

Ingredients

2 eggs
1 egg yolk
1 cup fresh apple cider
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. grated nutmeg
2 tbsp. melted butter
Frying oil or
shortening
Confectioners' sugar

Instructions

Beat together eggs and egg yolk in a large bowl. Gradually add cider and sugars. Sift together the dry ingredients and stir into egg mixture along with melted butter. Stir just enough to mix.

Turn dough out onto work surface floured just enough so dough won't stick. When dough is patted to 1/2-inch thick, cut into doughnut shapes using a floured cutter. Let rest 5 minutes.

Heat enough oil to fill the frying kettle 2 to 3 inches. Heat to 365°F. Drop in doughnuts; when doughnuts float to top, turn them. Fry until golden brown on both sides (2 to 3 minutes). Drain on brown paper bag. When cool, dust with confectioners' sugar.
