Apple Pie Doughnuts Recipes

APPLE PIE DONUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Prepare your donut pan. Spray with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugars, baking powder and spice.
• In another bowl, mix the milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla and apple pie filling.
• Mix the wet and dry mixture just until combined.
• Fill the donut pan.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
• Transfer the donuts to a cooling rack. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
• In a bowl, melt butter. In another bowl, mix together sugar and spice mix.
• Brush each donut with melted butter and toss the donut into the sugar/spice mixture.

APPLE PIE DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine the yeast and warm cider; set aside until it foams up, about 5 minutes.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the hook attachment, combine the melted butter and sugar, and - using a silicon whisk - mix until well combined. Whisk in the egg, egg yolk, milk, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, yeast mixture, and 3 cups of flour, and beat on medium-low speed until smooth. Beat in remaining flour just until a soft ball of dough forms around the hook. Don't knead the dough yet!
• Transfer the dough to a large, lightly greased bowl, turning once to coat the top. Cover tightly with saran wrap and set aside to rise in a warm area until it appears to have tripled in size, about 1 hour.
• Gently punch the dough down and turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough into a smooth ball, about 7-8 times, or until it's uniform in texture.
• Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out into a large rectangle, approximately 1/2 inch thick. Using a lightly floured round dough cutter, cut an equal amount of circles from the rectangle.
• Transfer the cut doughnuts to a large, lightly greased baking sheet, spacing them an inch a part (they will rise). Cover pan lightly with saran wrap and set aside for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the doughnuts have almost doubled in size.
• When ready to fry, heat oil in a large, heavy bottomed pot, to 360°(F). Fry doughnuts, a few at a time, for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
• Quickly roll the warm doughnuts in the cinnamon sugar and set aside.
• Peel, core, and dice the apples. Set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium-heat, melt the butter and continue cooking until it's a light golden color; about 3 minutes. Add in the apples, salt, and both sugars. Cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are completely softened, about 10 minutes. Add in the cinnamon and apple cider and continue cooking until apples are soft and sticky, 1 to 2 more minutes. Stir in flour, mix well, and allow mixture to thicken; about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and set aside until needed.
• In a medium-sized shallow bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon and set aside until needed.
• Scrape the apple pie filling into a pastry bag fitted with a round tip and set aside.
• Using the back of a small spoon (or your finger) make a small hole on the side of each doughnut.
• Carefully fit the nozzle of the bag into a doughnut and squeeze until you see the center begin to puff up. Repeat with all doughnuts.
• Donuts are best served the day they are made, but will keep for 24 hours.

APPLE PIE DOUGHNUTS RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Instructions In a large, heavy bottomed skillet, heat oil about 1/2-3/4 inch high. Depending on your size skillet will determine how much oil is necessary. Bring oil to a sizzle when you drop a couple drops of water into it. Separate biscuits and using a one inch circle cutter (I used a cannoli tube) pop center hole out of each biscuit so it resembles a donut. Fry each biscuit for 2-3 minutes each side. Allow to cool and dry on paper towels. While donuts are cooling, prepare apple pie filling (or use jarred/canned to save time). In a small saucepan, bring sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and water to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Add apple slices (or diced) and reduce heat to simmer. Cover and simmer for about 6-8 minutes, until apples are fork tender. Remove from heat and cool. For the frosting, beat butter and cream cheese for 3 minutes until fluffy. Add powdered sugar and milk and beat an additional 3-5 minutes. To assemble, frost cooled doughnut with cream cheese frosting. Top with cooled apple pie filling, peanuts and caramel sauce (divide evenly among the 8 doughnuts). ENJOY.
