Ingredients:
For the apple donuts:
2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (150g) packed brown sugar, light or dark
1/4 cup (1/2 stick / 60g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup (160mL) milk
1 & 1/2 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled, grated, and liquid squeezed out (about 2-3 medium apples)
For the cinnamon sugar coating:
5 tablespoons (75g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Grease 2 (6 count) donut pans, and set aside.
Make the apple donuts: In a medium sized bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk together, and set aside to prep the wet ingredients.
In a large bowl, whisk together brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla to combine. Add your milk and whisk until incorporated. Fold in your grated apples.
Add your dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and mix together until just combined.
Fill your greased donut tin with the batter, filling each donut mold a little over halfway full. You can do this with a spoon, but I find it's easiest to do by filling a large plastic bag or piping bag with the batter and piping it into the donut mold.
Bake the donuts in the center of your preheated 400°F oven for 7 to 10 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
Cool the donuts in the pan for about 5 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack and set aside to cool completely to room temperature.
Make the cinnamon sugar coating: Pour your butter into a shallow bowl (large enough to dip a donut in), and set aside.
In a medium bowl (also large enough to dip a donut in), add in sugar and cinnamon. Whisk until well combined.
Briefly dip a cooled donut into the melted butter and turn to coat. Transfer the buttered donut to the bowl with the cinnamon sugar and toss to coat. Repeat with all the donuts before serving!
Note: Coat the donuts in the butter and cinnamon sugar right before you plan on serving them! The sugar can draw out moisture from the donuts and make them soggy.
