With Apple Week in full swing, there are dozens of amazing apple recipes being shared each day. I brought these Apple Pie Donuts to the table today because they are a real favorite at our house!
These little sugary, spiced gems bake up light and fluffy and have chunks of apple pie filling throughout. The recipe is simple and the taste is classic.
These go great with a cup of coffee or tea, a sweet friend or a quiet corner and a good book. Just don’t get the sugar in between the pages. 🙂
I am literally so ready for Fall. I love everything about Fall. The sights, the sounds, the smells and the food. From simple tailgating fare to seasonal favorites like Apple Pie.
My Apple Pie Donuts are the perfect snack and you may have a little trouble only eating one. Sorry… not sorry. (I’m really kinda not… they are SO good)
These Apple Pie Donuts happen to be my son’s favorite and he loves them so much, I often have to make them randomly throughout the year. But he really does love them most in the Fall, when the apples are perfect.
If you love Apple Pie, you will definitely love these donuts and their sweet classic flavor.
When my son gives something two thumbs up, I know I have a winner. He’s a little picky. And he actually really doesn’t like sweets too much. So yes, I make these for him whenever he asks.
Who’s ready to make some Apple Pie Donuts right now?
