Apple Cider Doughnuts with Maple Glaze
Makes: 1 dozen  
 


Apple Cider Doughnuts  

As the weather begins to turn with the leaves, try these comforting doughnuts. They are very low in fat but big on taste.
 
 

 

INGREDIENTS

Doughnuts:
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 cups all-purpose flours
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 egg, lightly beaten
2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup apple butter
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup fresh apple cider
1/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt
3 tablespoons canola oil
   
Glaze:
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2-1/3 cup pure maple syrup
 



METHOD

Preheat the oven to 400°. Prepare a mini-bundt pan coated with DuPuPont SilverStone® non-stick by coating with vegetable spray. Sprinkle with half of the white sugar, shaking out the excess.

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside. In a larger bowl, whisk together the egg, brown sugar, apple butter, maple syrup, cider, yogurt, and oil. Add the dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened. Divide half the batter among the prepared molds, spooning 2 generous tablespoonfuls of batter per mold.

Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until the tops spring back when touched lightly. Loosen the edges of the cakes and turn out onto a rack to cool. Clean the bundt pan, then recoat with oil and sugar. Fill the molds with the remaining batter. Bake again and repeat the process.

Meanwhile, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, combine the powdered sugar and vanilla. Gradually whisk in enough maple syrup to make a coating consistency. Dip the shaped (underside) side of the doughnuts in the glaze to coat. Set the cakes glaze-side up on a rack over waxed paper for a few minutes until the glaze has set.
