Ingredients

For Donuts

  • 1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoons salt
  • 1 Tablespoons apple pie spice
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup apple puree applesauce works well too
  • ½ cup milk

For Spiced Sugar Coating

  • 8 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Apple Pie Spice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare your donut pan with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the pureed apple, vanilla, vegetable oil, eggs, milk and sugar.
  • In another bowl, mix together the apple pie spices, the salt, the baking powder and the flour.
  • Mix together the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, mixing well.
  • Using a mini ice cream scoop (my favorite method) or a spoon, fill each donut well with about a quarter cup of batter or so. You want them about 3/4 full.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the donut comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes in the pan.
  • Remove the donuts and place on a cooling rack to continue cooling.
  • While still warm, dip them into the melted butter and the apple pie spiced sugar mixture. Use 1 cup of sugar and 2 Tablespoons of apple pie spice. Dip the donut in butter, then dip in spiced sugar mix.
