Apple Cider Donuts & the pumpkin Farm

10/4/2018

Okay so I'm kind of cheating right know, so I didn't really make apple cider donuts, instead I bought mine from my local pumpkin farm. My oven at the farm is currently broken right know, sooo I kind of can't bake anything at the moment. With that, I purchased some tasty treats while I was there.

if you cant go to your pumpkin farm, here is an apple cider recipe

I got the yeast-raised donut recipe from my culinary book (Professional Baking 6th edition) and gave my own spin with the apple cider. 

ingredients 

  • Shortening                                                  3 oz.
  • Sugar                                                            4 oz.
  • Salt                                                                .5 oz.
  • Nutmeg                                                        1/2 tsp.
  • Cinnamon                                                   1/2 tsp.
  • Allspice                                                        1/2 tsp.
  • Nonfat milk solids                                     1.5 oz.
  • Eggs                                                               4 oz.
  • Bread flour                                                  1 LB. 13 oz.
  • Yeast, instant                                                .5 oz.
  • Apple Cider                                                   1 LB. 

Directions


  1. Combine the Shortening, Sugar, Salt, Cinnamon, Allspice, Nutmeg and Nonfat milk solids. Mix until combined, but not anymore than that. 
  2. Add one of the eggs and mix until incorporated. Repeat with the second one. 
  3. Add the apple cider; mix fast. 
  4. Add flour and yeast. 
  5. Develop dough by mixing with the dough hook for 6-8 minutes at second speed. 
  6. After done with mixing, let it ferment for 1- 1 1/2 hours. 
  7. Scale to the length of donuts you want- recommendation is 1.5 oz from my culinary book.  
  8. Cover and proof for 10 to 15 minutes. 
  9. In a fryer or on a pan with oil, fry at 360F. When they are fried, lift them off the oil and let it cool. 
  10. Add a cinnamon-sugar coating (1 Cup of sugar to 1 tsp. cinnamon).
