Ingredients
Method
For the Filling
- In a medium saucepan, add all the ingredients except the diced apples and bring to a boil over a medium-high heat, stirring often
- Boil until mixture starts thickening, about 5 minutes
- Once thickened, stir in the apples until nicely mixed and lower heat and let simmer until it thickens
- Once the liquid is gone, remove from the heat and let it cool
- For the Doughnut
- In a small saucepan, reduce the apple cider to half over a medium-high heat
- In a large bowl, mix together the flours, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and the spices
- Once the cider has reduced, add the butter and stir until it melts and mixes with the cider
- Remove from heat and let it cool
- Once cooled, stir in the eggs until they’re mixed with the cider
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix using the mixer until a ball of dough forms.
- Remove from the mixer, cover, and let rest in a cool dry place for 30 minutes to an hour until firm enough to shape
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to ½ inch thickness. Using a biscuit cutter, cut out the shape of the doughnut
- Fill a deep pan or a wok with vegetable oil and heat to 365 degrees
- Add the doughnuts and fry until golden brown on each side
- Using a slotted spoon or tongs, remove the donuts from the oil and let drain on a paper towel lined tray
- Once they are cool enough to handle, poke a small hole on the side of the donut about in the middle and, using a piping bag, pipe the apple pie filling into the donut, about 1/3 teaspoon of filling
- In a small bowl, mix together sugar and cinnamon and coat the donuts
- Serve and enjoy!
