Apples are in full season right now, and for us, that means apple cider everything. From our Instant Pot Apple Cider to our Apple Cider Mimosa, we’ve got beverages galore. BUT, what about dessert? We’ve got our Apple Tart and Apple Cinnamon Muffins, but not an apple cider dessert. Well, get ready cuz these apple cider donuts are here to make their way into your kitchens and your hearts just like they did ours. Gus and Bode have been DEVOURING these, and ،nestly we don’t blame them.

If you’ve never made donuts before, don’t worry—it’s not rocket science. You mix your dry and wet ingredients and combine them. Then, you pipe the batter into a donut pan. While these puppies are baking, make the brown sugar glaze. Once the donuts are done baking, let them cool for a bit, dip them in the glaze, and EAT UP.
