I bought some in a whim a few weeks ago and it is WORTH IT. After 30 I had my recipe dialed in and I can't wait to make a bunch to share with my coworkers so I can become the donut hero.
I just made them this morning. They're absolutely delicious. Since I live in Austria donut pans are impossible to come by, I just made them in muffin tins and they turned out really good as well. They might take a minute or two longer.
Chef John, my mom loved watching your videos and making your recipes. We always talked about them, and enjoyed every single one we made. She passed away this morning, and I just want to thank you for all of your videos and the joy of cooking that you bring.
Kisk, I am so sorry. It’s going to be some rough weeks. It’s a great thing to have touchstones like these recipes that can continually remind you of the wonderful times you shared. Be well.
Bless you.🕊 I lost my Mom 10 years ago and coming up on the anniversary, I still cry. Remember, tears mean love. Lots of love, lots of tears. Great mamas are an eternal blessing. Take care. 🌹
I just made these. I followed the recipe pretty much exactly, except I made half a batch and scaled everything in half. Normally, I don't care for donuts, because I dislike fried, oily foods. All I can say is WOW, these are phenomenal. These remove that fried component, so there is so much more flavor without that grease muting the taste. The texture is a very light, airy cake, and the apple cider flavor is very pronounced. They're incredible. It was very difficult to only eat one. Still warm out of the oven, they're a 10/10.
Long, long ago, I was the "fancy" finisher at a Mister Donut. Those are the people who decorate and fill them, after a guy bakes or fries them. And I want to say, Chef, that even with the hole still filled in, it's still a donut, whether fried or yeast-raised. Another alternative to punching out the yummy hole would have been to think it's serendipitous, and spoon a little apple filling into the center, before or after icing it with apple cider icing, rather than punching out the hole. It would be a fancy, with an extra bite to eat or dunk! (and you can charge more for fancies, even personalize them for the cops who came in at night for free donuts and coffee). Cream and jelly filled donuts are still donuts, as are fancies, which are open-faced and filled on top, rather than the filling injected on the inside. If I made these, I'd overfill the tray just like you, but put apple filling in the center, after tossing them in cinnamon sugar, or dribbling apple cider icing over them. They'd all be tempting.
Sitting around at night with hot apple cider in a mug and an apple cider donut to "dunk"... Now THAT'S living! (and if someone spills a little spiced rum into your mug, so much the better!)
I just realized that these are the same donuts I had once during a visit to NY. I visited a green apple orchard upstate with my brother and he bought me some of these to try. They were so addicting!
You really came through with this one. These donuts are an impressive breakfast, a comfort food, and a fall dessert all in one and I'm excited to try making them myself.
Chef John!! Thank you for sharing this recipe. I love apple cider donuts but don’t like how they are deep fried. These are perfect. And as always, I love your humor as you make cooking so fun! 😂🥰🍩
Thank you Chef for making it clear what Americans mean when they say apple cider, for the longest time I was so confused, especially when it came to apple cider vinegar... that clarification alone made things so much easier for me to grasp, not just when watching Ur channel but all others as well. Ur the best, thanks again!
Oh geez; have I a story for y’all! While hubby works from home, I keep myself quiet by learning origami through TH-cam videos; sometimes I reduce the playback speed so I can figure out stuff. I usually have my iPad sound off so I can listen to music on my earphones from my iPhone...fast forward to tonight, when I was on the hunt for new Food Wishes videos for Thanksgiving ideas...saw this vid, so I turned it on. My hubby started laughing his head off immediately and that’s when I realized I had not turned the playback speed back up! We especially howled at the “not the alcoholic apple cider” bit! We listened to this vid at 1/2 playback speed, but other speeds might be funny!
I am lucky enough to live in the foothills of the shawnee forest, where we have nothing but rolling acres of orchards about 8 minutes from my front porch. A few of orchards have bakeries/concessions for those that want to take a break on our beautiful wine trails or just driving through on a beautiful Southern Illinois day. A particular orchard makes these and they are absolutely a taste of a different time, a nostalgic reminder of the past.
For me, it's southwest Michigan. Orchards sold bags or bushels of apples, along with apple butter, jellies and jams and the most delicious apple cider baking powder fried doughnuts, with a sweet, cinnamony aroma that you could smell from the road.
As a Pastry Chef myself, I can say that people SERIOUSLY underestimate what pastry can do when it comes to trouble shooting and fixing mistakes lol. Good job Chef John 🤸🏾♀️👍🏾
Made a batch of these yesterday - delicious!. I thought they would be "cakey" donuts and fall apart easy but the texture was firm and chewy. The longest step is reducing the cider. Also, when I made it, the batter yielded a bakers dozen with my sized donut pans. Thank you Chef John!!!
It’s been a few years since I last watched your videos, but I must say I’m very pleased with the way your tone has developed. Where you used to end every sentence with a higher pitch, it’s a lot more balanced now, which is easier on the ears. Lovely dish.
I fell in love with apple cider donuts while traveling in Vermont. Bought my doughnut pan and apple cider, and plan to make them this week. Thanks, Chef John!!!
My husband and I watch all your videos. We love your sense of humor & recipes! Thanks so much for sharing these lovely recipes. We have learned so much from you. 🙂 Cheers from Canada New Brunswick!
Tip from my grandmother - when it comes to doughnut & muffin pans, while buttering, also butter the top of the pans, not just the 'hole/well' sections, this way if any batter blooms during baking and goes over the 'well area' and onto the top of the muffin/doughnut pan making them easier to pop right out of their baking pans. ;)
I have made these 3 times since I found this video last Christmas 2021 and today at this moment June 4th, 2022 makes 4 times and tomorrow will make 5 times.. LOL😅. Thank you Chef John!! These have helped my family and I create beautiful memories. My great grandpa has been asking me to make him some of these donuts that my mom told him that I made for Christmas (along with your Hot Buttered Rum recipe🔥) and so I finally surprised him 2 days ago on his 89th birthday and he was overjoyed 🥰🥰 Not sure how much longer he will be here with us due to his health declining but I'm feeling sooo blessed to be able to utilize these donuts to make his day special!!😭💙🙏🏾 Thank you again from the bottom of my (and my great grandpa's) heart!!💙💙🙏🏾
I was thinking how wonderful it would taste to fill the "not" hole with spiced whipped cream. But then you poked a hole in it. Oh well. They still look super yummy 😋
Freshly ground nutmeg > ground stuff. Reminds me of a time where a famous tv chef said “I guess you could stir the stir fry” (instead of pan flipping)...
Let me just say that moving to Florida from New Jersey, this is the one thing I miss . Didn't think me making this for my family was on the agenda this week and yet here I am 😊
What a lovely recipe! I would love to make these, but would have to make a small adjustment because my friend is allergic to apples. So I would make, perhaps, a pear or orange juice reduction.
@@joeees7790 If you get fresh unpasteurized (Or as we call it, real) Apple Cider, it's an entirely different drink than pasteurized Apple Juice of Apple Cider. And unlike milk, fresh unpasteurized cider is completely safe - It's just not shelf stable.
Every fall my family gets together, sometimes inviting neighbors, to make fresh apple cider. Apple juice is not the same as cider 👍 We usually freeze the cider to enjoy all year, or can it with spices for hot cider
I am a firm believer in the fingertip and mouth cleaning method to efficiently remove spattered batter on pans. I followed this rather delicious method as recently as yesterday while baking nearly a dozen loaves of banana nut bread with my mother and nephew. I may or may not have used it on the spatula, beaters and measuring cups as well.
Made this batter for my mini donut maker, perfection! Some of the best donuts I've ever eaten. I made extra cider reduction and made a glaze with it and powdered sugar. YUM.
Chef John, I heard your interview on the podcast "Homemade". It was good. About those wells before you punched them out, I suggest mixing some slightly warmed cream cheese with a splash of rum and folding some whipped cream into it.
I'm going to make these without removing the excess in the center, put a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the middle and then drizzle extra apple cider reduction over the top.
Over the last few weeks I've learned from watching similar videos that the cider doughnuts I remember (from my part of NY State) were evidently weird. Because ours didn't have sugar or any glaze on them. They just had an apple flavor inside. But I'm pretty sure I'd like these too
Hip, hip, hooray for this recipe! I have made these twice now, and they've been a huge hit both times! I added a big pinch of kosher salt and two big pinches (about 1/4 tsp.?) of ground cardamom to the cinnamon sugar mixture they're rolled in and I think that adds a nice bit of intrigue. These are on my permanent recipe rotation now. Thank you, Chef John! You are awesome. P.S. - Hi to Michelle.
I made these today. No donut pan, so I used a cupcake tin and liners. Turned out fine! Here is what I found: Doing the apple cider reduction on an electric stovetop sucks. It took a long time and my oven was heated far too long just waiting. I would make the reduction and let it cool. I also think the hot reduction in the batter curdled it a bit. It IS a super light finished product with a nice flavor. I prefer a stronger flavor and would consider adding more reduction, more nutmeg, and finding some cardamom since I didn't have any. I can see that really making a good finished product. Rolling in butter then cinnamon and sugar is great! We are storing them plan and then adding the butter/cinnamon sugar when we eat it instead of all at once. Thanks Chef John at Food Wishes dot com!
@@voidofopinion i'm quite aware of Scrumpy enjoyed a good flagon of Cripple Cock bought in Port Isaac as well as there been many other varieties of Devon Orchard Cider, come to think what kind of savage would pu their scrumpy into a doughnut mix instead of drink it, you perhaps, you savage!!!
Looking forward to making these tonight and having them with coffee in the morning! Pretty damn excited. I have make a lot of your recipes Chef John Thank you Jim and Jung from Cincy Oh
When we were kids, we lived in upstate New York. There was a little shop that was open only in the fall, after their apple orchard was harvested. The store made apple everything. We gather around the clear window where the big cauldron was, and watch the donuts being made. The hot donuts were then tossed into cinnamon sugar, they'd get boxed, and we hogged out on them on the way home.
Amazing can't wait to make them for Thanksgiving Chef John how about some new sides for Thanksgiving love what you do keep up the good work have a blessed day🍠🍯🍗😊
Thank you John for this, I’m going to try these today, I’ll let you know how I get on, just a shame I can’t send pictures of them, love waiting you xxxxx
Last week I accidentally bought doughnut pans from Amazon while in my cart as I was buying other tools in a rush, and now they have a purpose! Thank you Chef John!
"Which I like to add at this point, because I forgot to add it at an earlier point" haha!!!! Oh chef John I love that he forgets stuff just like us, and instead of redoing the recipe or editing the video he just adds it when he remembers!
Chef - I just remembered what I always forgot- and that was to give you a great big Thank You! I write this in the middle of your instruction. If I waited until the end I would just find myself in the kitchen or on the way to market. Thank you! One final thought- I will make these and fill those closes-hole donuts with some warm diced/seasoned apple... with some Berentzer Apfel on the side :)
I didn’t think buying donut pans was on the agenda for my week, but here we are.
Exactly, I always thought donut pans were another unnecessary kitchen clutter item but I was wrong. Think ill treat myself to one this holiday season.
Ugh amazon. Maybe BBB.
😂
I bought some in a whim a few weeks ago and it is WORTH IT. After 30 I had my recipe dialed in and I can't wait to make a bunch to share with my coworkers so I can become the donut hero.

Don't cut out the hole, use them as "bowl." Fill them with fruit--even an apple compote
Or maybe some sweet cream cheese with a bit of cinnamon in it...
YES! Love that idea
Apple compote and drizzle just a couple ribbons of caramel on top.
I'm thinking some Chantilly cream
Indeed. My thoughts went first to ice cream!
I had no idea about the apple cider thing. The only apple cider I know has alcohol. Thanks for warning your European friends, I appreciate it 🤗
i think you could probably use alcoholic cider and get sligthly different flavor.
@@MrTheSmoon I agree 😊
I don't think much alcohol would be left after reducing and baking.
yea same here.. thanks!
As Chef John says, "You're the Spiderman of your cider, man!"

You watched the video and made them in under 30 minutes?
He. Means they look incredible, and not everyone that watches cooking videos actually cook the recipes 👍
Btw I liked your last video, Snickers is my favorite!
Slide trombone is what I hear every time I try to cook. Thanks Chef John for making it a bit easier.
Interested in trying these, as the local farm that makes my favorites is cutting them off for the season soon
These look delicious I think I would leave them close at the one end and at the last minute when I served them, I would fill them with custard
You really came through with this one. These donuts are an impressive breakfast, a comfort food, and a fall dessert all in one and I'm excited to try making them myself.

Cream cheese filling topped with salted caramel and spice whipped cream.
Definitely a wasted opportunity! A filled donut is always a superior donut.
But according to Chef John they would be "mutant muffins' you filled not donuts.
Why not? You are, after all, the Barney Miller of your "not" hole filler.
Super awesome accuracy in filling the cup as not a single drop spilled

I write this in the middle of your instruction. If I waited until the end I would just find myself in the kitchen or on the way to market.
Thank you!
One final thought- I will make these and fill those closes-hole donuts with some warm diced/seasoned apple... with some Berentzer Apfel on the side :)
Hi Chef JOHN! What a beautiful way to bring us down to earth Apple Pie 🥧 it’s been a gnarly week!
Great recipe Chef 👌
Love it, Chef John!! You always provide good laughs along with handy tricks!
It looks like you have some seriously professional equipment. Your stove and oven look amazing
These are pretty good my favorite are the butter pecan ones I am really into actually cake donuts they are made different
CHEF JOHN!! Will you make pasta all'assassina? Thanks for all of your videos!
seeing as i don't have a doughnut baking tray, i'll try it with a muffin tray - and skip the holes.
