Apple Cider Doughnuts With Maple Glaze image

In the Vermont countryside, there are two sure signs of spring: frost heaves in the road and smoke rising from the chimneys of the sugarhouses. This recipe was inspired by treats you find while touring this corner of America: cider doughnuts and maple syrup. A mini-Bundt pan produces adorable doughnut-shaped cakes, but if you do not have one, you can use a regular Bundt pan and make a coffee cake; bake it in a 375-degree F oven fo r 25 to 30 minutes.

Yield 10 mini-bundt doughnuts

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose white flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon, ground
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup apple butter
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup apple cider
1/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil (preferably canola oil)
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • To make Doughnuts: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Coat molds of a mini-Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray or oil.
  • Sprinkle with sugar, shaking out excess.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon; set aside.
  • In another bowl, whisk together egg, brown sugar, apple butter, maple syrup, cider, yogurt and oil.
  • Add dry ingredients and stir just until moistened.
  • Divide half the batter among the prepared molds, spooning about 2 generous tablespoonfuls of batter into each mold.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the tops spring back when touched lightly.
  • Loosen edges and turn the cakes out onto a rack to cool.
  • Clean the mini-Bundt pan, then re-coat it with oil and sugar.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter.
  • To make maple glaze: In a bowl, combine confectioners sugar and vanilla.
  • Gradually whisk in enough maple syrup to make a coating consistency.
  • Dip the shaped side (underside) of the "doughnuts" in the glaze to coat. Then set them, glazed-side up on a rack over wax paper for a few minutes until the glaze has set.
