EASY APPLE CIDER DONUTS | Baked Not Fried

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Do you prefer cake donuts or yeasted donuts? Tell me below!

[@ohmylordforgivemeandmypare232]

I prefer cake donut 🍩

[@KitchenCraftFood]

@@ohmylordforgivemeandmypare232 I'm torn. If I was forced to choose I think I'd go for the yeast donut.

[@wgwells]

Both are amazing, but nothing beats a fluffy, lighter-than-air, yeast donut. This recipe looks fantastic--can't wait to try it.

[@KitchenCraftFood]

@@wgwells Yeah, I'd go yeast donut if I was forced to choose. Each type has its own unique qualities.

[@mrkrasker9609]

Definitely cake donuts

[@moduqueRN]

Why haven’t I seen you before when I have searched a plethora of baking recipes? 🤷‍♀️ Great recipe and planning to try several more of yours 👍🏻😊

[@jalal29955]

Just tried this recipe today and it was so delicious!!! Similar to the ones I get from farmers market! I followed another recipe last week and it was so horrible. Finally an amazing ACD recipe!!

[@Historical_Jalapeno]

Was it a good texture despite being baked?

[@jalal29955]

Cooking on a Budget so good! I was skeptical but this recipe is 👍

[@vickili8574]

Thank you so much for this awesome donut recipe! My boyfriend and I loves cider mill donut, and we are devastated because the cider mill season is gonna be over soon. Now we have something to always fall back on.

[@KitchenCraftFood]

You are so welcome!

[@okay5045]

The pastry bag tip is a game changer thank you

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Happy to help.

Hello! I made cider "donuts" for Thanksgiving. I was actually following another recipe very similar to yours but I found your video to be so helpful as far as how to do the cider reduction, melt butter and mixing the ingredients. Wow! The donuts were such a hit! I bought a doughnut pan now so I can make them look nicer. p.s. I found your voice very soothing. LOL

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Hi! Thanks for sharing! So glad you found my recipe helpful! I posted a fried apple cider donut video recently. Check that out if you're look for a variation of this recipe.

[@justinngam4901]

great vid! shots were so clean, I feel like you've gotten better at explaining your recipes and the rationale behind them. also, baked doughnuts! unique take when it's most commonly fried! keep it up :)

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Great comment. I really appreciate it. In the past I've felt rushed, especially when try to get a new video up every week. The new plan is twice a month. Less content, but better execution.

[@erindunne2859]

Thank youuuu all the other recipes looked terrible, this looks amazing. Can't wait to try!!

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Awesome! Glad you like the video. Thanks for watching!

[@AnaJones-nc4tp]

LOVE THIS RECIPE, it is now a family recipe lol

[@josistevens3061]

Definitely a great recipe. Made these twice with one small change, I used buttermilk instead of the yogurt because that is what I had on hand and they came out perfect. Next time I will need to double the recipe because 1 dozen is just not enough. The kids devoured them.

[@KitchenCraftFood]

That's awesome! I like the yogurt-to-buttermilk substitution. Glad that worked out for you!

[@okay5045]

How much butter milk please?

[@NoodleEnd]

Totally thumbs up for the recipe and more thumbs up for the video work you’ve done here!! Wow man what a beautiful work 👍🏾👍🏽😊🔥

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Thank you so much! Hearing that from a fellow KZbinr makes my day 🙌.

[@gymwars1244]

Good to have you back, Tim. I actually have all of the ingredients on hand and plan to surprise the kids with this tomorrow..👍

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Thanks man! Quick tip: use an apple-flavored yogurt if you can find it.

[@gymwars1244]

Kitchen & Craft will do! Thanks for the tip.

[@EthanChlebowski]

The colors in this video look amazing man! Did you do some color grading?

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Hey thanks Ethan. I adjusted my set up to try and improve lighting. It a constant struggle with the layout/location of my kitchen. I do color grade each video, but I think this little adjustment is what your noticing. Either that or I bumped the saturation up too high 🤣! Hope you're very well man!

[@EthanChlebowski]

​@@KitchenCraftFood I feel you with the lighting struggle haha. I would keep going with this setup. The colors really popped in this one!

[@duncanjmurray]

Made these tonight and they were so tasty. Great recipe, Tim.

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Thank you Duncan. I appreciate that! I'll have a video for a fried version coming out Sunday/Monday.

Right before he said thumbs up or thumbs down I liked the video

[@kittybacc]

Yummmm ♥️♥️ thank you. 😊♥️

[@etherdog]

Hey Tim! This is the first no-fry doughnut video I've ever seen. Thanks for the metric quantities--I was starting to burn before you mentioned them being in the description. Does European butter work well for the browned butter? We did a blind tasting on fresh homemade bread of Kerrygold, Lurpak, and President and liked the Kerrygold best, but there was very little discernible taste difference, but Kerrygold is about 2/3 the price of the other two. I haven't made browned butter since going exclusively to Euro butter. I imagine it being fine, but with less water one would have to watch it like a hawk. Great recipe, and I like the little substitution suggestions like a half of a vanilla bean and a pinch of cardamom. And thanks for the notes and links in the description--very professional, Chef!

[@andrewmaduri6702]

Not that anyone will see this, but, who many cups is 6 1/3 oz. ? thx

[@morenobleberean]

Lol I love how you didn’t grease the one pan and had to smash the pan to get the donuts out & you didn’t edit it out. But that’s ok. How many others will also forget to do the same? Good video.

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Just trying to keep it real 🤣. I do it all the time!

[@savannahr5728]

Hello I was wondering if you have the recipe written down to help with people who have a hard time hearing?

[@susanmg1810]

I noticed in the video that your browned butter was paste when you added it to the ingredients. Is it necessary to have it cooled to a paste? I'm making these today. I can't wait to taste them. They seem like they will have a good balance of flavor.

[@KitchenCraftFood]

My goal was to make the brown butter loose enough so that it can be incorporated into the batter evenly, but cool enough so that the donuts aren't too dense in texture. Colder butter makes for a lighter donut.

[@journeytravelers5420]

Thank you :)

[@HelloGudbye93]

Can I substitute the plain yogurt with anything or can I leave it out? I only have greek yogurt in the fridge 😕

[@KitchenCraftFood]

HelloGudbye93 Greek yogurt is good!

[@HelloGudbye93]

@@KitchenCraftFood Lifesaver!! Thank you for your quick response, I was already halfway thru making these before I realized 😂

what temp do you bake them at and for how long?

[@lindakowalski9912]

Please tell me how many cups of four is used?

[@alyssadavis2729]

I plan to make this recipe now :) I just need to grab a doughnut pan from the nearest Michael’s first, I’ll post again when I’m done!

[@alyssadavis2729]

Finished! And final verdict... drumroll... it’s really freaking good!! I can taste the apple, I can taste the spice, and the texture is that of a doughnut!! I’m definitely going to keep with this recipe now that it’s fall :) thank you!! Oh and final note though, for the future: if you’re only planning on making one batch, he mentioned this in the video, but there’s a good 1/2 cup of leftover sugar cinnamon coating left after making a dozen so if you don’t plan to make another batch soon and don’t want to waste ingredients, then I recommend that you make a bit less of this coating. Also, for me at least, the butter didn’t brown unless it was on medium heat (not low) and the apple cider had to reduce over medium-high but that’s just for my stove!! Really amazing recipe, my mom is a fan too, thanks and have a cozy fall everyone :)

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Hey Alyssa, thank you for taking the time to comment. Glad the recipe was a hit and that you tweaked it in a way that works best for your kitchen. That's one of the beauties of cooking, you have the freedom make adjustments and fine-tune a recipe as necessary. Did you take pictures? If so, tag me on Instagram (@kitchencraftfood) or shoot me a link to a place online where I can view them. Stay well!

[@alyssadavis2729]

@@KitchenCraftFood Ahh thank you for replying! Sorry I’m late in getting back to you, but I did take photos and I will post them today! I am also very glad that this recipe worked out :) Best, Alyssa

[@pichayaninchanpromrach1519]

Hello, I wanna make this but we don't usually have apple cider in my country. I found the apple cider vinegar online. Is it the same thing?

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Hey there, thanks for the question. Cider vinegar is not the same thing. You could try mulling some apple juice to sub out for the apple cider.

[@amirah2152]

How many cups is 6.5 oz ?

[@omarkhalil7038]

I’m gonna make this but does Apple cider vinegar work as well?

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Glad to hear you're giving it a try, but you'll need apple cider. Cider vinegar won't cut it. Good luck!

[@momo-sg3rk]

How can I make this to a dough? I don't have oven nor microwave

Sorry, happy to help, but I don't understand your question. Would you mind rephrasing? Thanks!

[@KitchenCraftFood]

@@anafindlay1696 No worries! I haven't tried frying them, but I bet they'd turn out pretty tasty! You'd just have to figure out the best way to transfer the batter to the hot oil.

It was good until you used spray to coat the pans. Spray oil is really bad for you

[@KitchenCraftFood]

Nothing in this particular brand stands out as being harmful, especially in such a small quantity.
