Doughnut Ingredients

Method

Doughnut Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Doughnut Batter

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In another bowl, combine the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the grated apple.

  2. 2

    Prepare for Frying

    Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C).

  3. 3

    Fry the Doughnuts

    Using a spoon or a doughnut cutter, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve warm with a drizzle of honey and a side of crème anglaise for dipping.
