Apple Sauce Donuts Recipe

Name: Apple Sauce Donuts
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1/3 cups Sugar; 2 Tablespoons Shortening; 1/2 teaspoons Nutmeg; 1/4 teaspoons Cinnamon; 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract; 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder; 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda; 1 teaspoon Salt; 2 cups Flour; 1 Tablespoon Milk; 1/2 cups Apple Sauce; 3 cups Vegetable Oil, For Frying

Servings: persons

1/3 cups Sugar
2 Tablespoons Shortening
1/2 teaspoons Nutmeg
1/4 teaspoons Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
2 cups Flour
1 Tablespoon Milk
1/2 cups Apple Sauce
3 cups Vegetable Oil, For Frying

1
Combine all of your dry ingredients in a bowl.
2
Combine your wet ingredients in an electric mixer bowl. (The electric mixer is not completely necessary, but encouraged.) Add the dry ingredients to those in the mixer.
3
Blend well for several minutes. Dough should be close in consistency to wet cookie dough and dry pancake batter.
4
Heat up oil in a frying pan on medium heat.
5
You will know the oil is hot enough when you drop dough in and the oil bubbles around it. Or if you must (and have a thermometer, which I do not), heat to 350F.
6
Drop the batter in 1 teaspoon at a time. They expand as they cook, so less is more! Sometimes the donuts flip themselves over, sometimes you will need to help them out with tongs.
7
When they are a medium to dark brown on each side, remove to a plate with a paper towel to allow some of the oil to run off.
8
Roll them in sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg OR frost as desired.
9
They go great with a big glass of milk.
