This recipe has converted me from a yeast donut lover, to a cake donut lover. The apple cider was very subtle, but, oh boy, did it add to the amazing flavor!

Steps:
- 1. Boil apple cider in small saucepan until it is reduced to 1/4 cup, 8 to 10 minutes; cool.
- 2. Beat sugar with shortening until smooth. Add eggs and mix well, then add buttermilk and reduced cider.
- 3. Stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in another bowl.
- 4. Add to liquid ingredients; mix just enough to combine. Transfer dough to lightly floured board and pat to 1/2-inch thickness.
- 5. Cut with 2 1/2- to 3-inch doughnut cutter; reserve doughnut holes and reroll and cut scraps.
- 6. Add enough oil or shortening to fill a deep pan 3 inches; heat to 375'F. Fry several doughnuts at a time, turning once or twice, until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes.
- 7. Remove to paper towels with slotted spoon.
- 8. While still warm, shake a few at a time in a paper bag containing cinnamon sugar. Cool on a rack.
