Apple Cinnamon Baked Donuts
(based on this recipe)
makes about 24 donut holes
1/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cups bite size chunks of apple, peeled and cored
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup cold butter, cut into small pieces
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
To Coat:
1/4 cup of butter, melted
1/3 cup of sugar
1 tsp cinnamon powder
Preheat your oven to 350F. Whisk the flour, baking powder, sugars salt and and nutmeg in a bowl. Add the cold chopped butter. Rub the pieces of butter with the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg. Mix in the milk and fold in the chopped apples. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture. Stir using a spatula or spoon making sure not to overmix. Place a spoonful of batter into each mold of a buttered mini muffin pan.
Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the donuts are just golden. Remove from the oven, unmold and lightly brush each donut with the melted butter. Dunk in a bowl with the sugar and cinnamon mixed in. Shake off excess sugar and serve immediately. Enjoy!
