Easy Baked Apple Donuts Recipes

EASY BAKED APPLE DONUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease pans with butter or spray with nonstick spray. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, cloves and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Whisk sugar, brown sugar, egg, oil, buttermilk, apple compote and vanilla extract in a large bowl until completely smooth. Add dry ingredients and combine with a rubber spatula until the batter just comes together.
• Transfer batter to a large Ziploc bag. Cut a small hole in the corner of the bag and pipe the batter into a nonstick donut pan, filling each donut space about three-quarters of the way up with batter.
• Transfer to the oven and bake until donuts spring back when touched, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, make the topping. Combine the sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and cloves in a shallow bowl. When donuts are cool enough to handle, brush each donut with melted butter and toss in sugar and spice mixture until donuts are fully coated. Serve warm.

EASY APPLE 'DOUGHNUTS' RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• For the batter, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
• Mix in the egg and buttermilk.
• Gradually stir in the milk.
• Next, core the apples and slice vertically into doughnut-size rings. Each apple should give you about 3 rings.
• Heat the oil in a deep frying pan to 180˚C (350°F).
• Evenly coat each apple slice in the batter mix.
• Carefully lay the doughnuts into the oil and fry for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towel before coating in sugar.
• Enjoy!

APPLE DOUGHNUTS (BAKED)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and sugar.
• Cut in shortening.
• Mix in egg, milk and apples.
• Fill greased muffing pans or doughnut baking pan 2/3 full with batter.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
• While they are still warm, roll in 1/2 cup melted butter and then roll in cinnamon-sugar (1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/3 cup sugar).

BAKED MINI DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease miniature muffin cups or line with paper liners.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl. Stir milk and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl. Beat butter and 1/3 cup white sugar together in a third bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; beat in egg.
• Stir flour mixture, alternating with milk mixture, into butter mixture until batter is smooth. Spoon batter into a piping bag and pipe into muffin cups, about 2/3-full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Mix 1/3 cup white sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl; add warm doughnuts and gently toss with hands until coated.

BAKED APPLE CIDER DONUTS

Steps:

• Reduce the apple cider: In a small saucepan, bring apple cider to a gentle boil and let simmer over medium heat until thick and reduced to about 1/3 cup (80 ml), 15-25 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Grease donut pans with butter or nonstick spray. Set aside.
• In a large bowl sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt. Set aside.
• In a small bowl whisk together the egg, granulated sugar and brown sugar, until well combined. Whisk in the melted butter. Add the reduced apple cider, buttermilk and vanilla extract, and mix until combined. Pour the mixture into the flour mixture and whisk just until combined and smooth. Don't overmix the batter.
• Divide the mixture between the donut cavities, filling about halfway full. I recommend using a piping bag to pipe the batter, it will be much easier and less messy. Bake for about 10 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the donuts comes out clean. Let donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes and then transfer them to a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, make the topping: In a medium bowl mix together the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Once cool enough to handle, for each donut, dip both sides in melted butter and then generously dip into the sugar mixture.
• Donuts are best served immediately. Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days. Serve them warm or at room temperature.

CINNAMON APPLE BAKED DONUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F and set rack on middle or lower middle position. Grease mini donut pans and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
• In another bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, 2 TB melted butter, vanilla extract, and grated apple (I use the largest holes of box grater; then squeeze out as much juice as you can. Save juice for drinking - yum.)
• Use rubber spatula to fold wet ingredients with dry ingredients, gently folding just until combined; do not over-mix or it won't be as tender. Spoon or pipe batter into greased mini donut pans until batter is level with the top of pan. Use damp fingers to gently smooth out the tops.
• Bake about 7 minutes or until lightly golden. Cool in pan slightly, just until they are able to be easily removed. Set donuts on wire rack while you make the cinnamon-sugar coating.
• Whisk together the sugar with desired amount of cinnamon in a small bowl (this can be done days ahead of time.) Melt butter in another small bowl. When ready to eat, dip donuts in melted butter and roll generously in cinnamon sugar. Enjoy immediately.

BAKED STRAWBERRY DONUTS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a donut tin with nonstick baking spray. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat the egg and sugar together with a whisk until smooth. Add the oil, buttermilk, and vanilla. Whisk until combined.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined.
• Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
• Pour the batter into a piping bag or Ziplock bag. Cut the end off of the piping bag or corner of the Ziplock bag and fill the donut cavities ¾ full.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.
• Allow the donuts to cool for 10 minutes in the tin. Flip the donut tin upside-down over a wire rack to completely cool.
• Make the glaze. Place the finely diced strawberries into a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash and puree the strawberries until almost smooth. Add the vanilla, milk, and powdered sugar and mix until combined. If the glaze is too thin, add more powdered sugar. If the glaze is too thick, add milk.
• Dip the donuts into the glaze or drizzle the glaze over the donuts.

BAKED APPLE DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 12-cavity mini doughnut pans.
• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a large bowl; mix together with a fork until combined. Add shortening and mix with the fork until broken up into small clumps.
• Mix together apples, milk, and eggs in a separate bowl. Add to flour mixture and stir just until blended. Spoon batter into the prepared doughnut pans.
• Bake doughnuts in the preheated oven until slightly browned on the bottoms, about 10 minutes. Remove from pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• While doughnuts are cooling, place melted butter for topping in a shallow bowl. Mix together 1 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in another shallow bowl. Dip cooled doughnuts in butter and then in sugar mixture to coat.
