Apple Cider Cinnamon Sugar Donut Holes

Ingredients 
6 tablespoons unsalted butter 
1 large egg 
¼ cup granulated sugar 
¼ cup apple cider 
¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice 
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 
1 cup all-purpose flour 
1 teaspoon baking powder 
½ teaspoon cinnamon 
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
⅛ teaspoon ground allspice 
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt 
Coating
½ cup granulated sugar 
1 tablespoon cinnamon 
Glaze
1 ¼ cup confectioner’s sugar 
1 tablespoon maple syrup 
2 teaspoons apple cider 
1 tablespoon heavy cream

Directions 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a doughnut hole pan. 

In a saucepan, melt butter; let cool. In a large bowl, combine 3 tablespoons melted butter, egg, sugar, apple cider, orange juice, and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and sea salt. Whisk flour mixture into egg mixture until a smooth batter is formed. Using a pastry bag, or spoon, fill baking pan with batter. Bake until donut holes rise and are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Flip donut holes onto a baking sheet with a wire rack and cool. 

In a paper bag or small bowl, mix together sugar and cinnamon. Dip donut holes in reserved butter then evenly coat in sugar mixture. Place donut holes on wire rack. 

Whisk together the confectioners’ sugar, maple syrup, apple cider, and heavy cream to form a glaze. Drizzle glaze on donut holes or dip the tops in glaze. Let glaze set before serving. 

Bake with soul. Eat with pleasure!
