Method

Donut Base

  1. 1

    Prepare the Donut Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Whisk to combine.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and apple cider until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  4. 4

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan.

  5. 5

    Fill Donut Pan

    Spoon the batter into the greased donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the donuts spring back when lightly touched. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Filling

  1. 7

    Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture

    In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with maple syrup until smooth and well combined.

  2. 8

    Cook Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 9

    Prepare Apple Slices

    Slice the apple into thin rounds, removing the core.

Assembly

  1. 10

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Once the donuts are cooled, slice them in half horizontally. Spread a generous amount of the cream cheese mixture on the bottom half.

  2. 11

    Add Fillings

    Layer on crispy bacon and apple slices on top of the cream cheese. Top with the other half of the donut.

  3. 12

    Finish with Toppings

    In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar and cinnamon together. Dust the tops of the sandwiches with the cinnamon sugar mixture before serving.
