Gluten Free Baked Apple Cider Donuts

Every fall we pack all of our littles up in the car and we head to our favorite apple orchard(s). Is it weird that we visit more than a couple? Is it weirder that we have multiple favorites too? Cause

Ingredients

• For the donuts:
• 1½ cups gluten free flour blend
• 1 tsp xanthan gum
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ½ granulated sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• ¼ tsp nutmeg
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1 cup apple cider (to be reduced to ½ cup!)
• ¼ cup milk (almond milk works great!)
• 1 egg
• 2 tbsp butter, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla
• For the cinnamon sugar topping:
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, simmer one cup of apple cider (and if you have it available, a stick of cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg) over heat over medium heat for 15-20 minutes.
2. Let simmer to reduce the apple cider down to about ½ cup.
3. Carefully remove the cinnamon stick and let cool. Set aside.
