Apple Cider Donuts

Summer mornings make me want to cover my head and go back to sleep.

Winter mornings are even worse! I just want to snooze and snuggle under the covers until noon. The only thing (besides a dog jumping on my chest) that gets me moving is knowing I have a yummy breakfast planned. I love making fall breakfast treats like pumpkin muffins, or apple dumplings to get me out of bed!

We love making other donuts too like Zeppole and copycat Krispy Kremes.

These apple cider donuts are one of my favorites for Fall. Use the leftover cider in my apple martini too!

They start out with a simple biscuit dough making them perfect for a lazy weekend or a chilly morning.
