These Golden Cider Nutmeg Glazed Donuts are soft, fluffy and will bring a fun festive flair to any holiday spread. I made this in partnership with my favorite non-toxic candle brand, Calyan Wax Co. These donuts are inspired by their holiday scent, Golden Cider + Nutmeg.

Golden Cider Nutmeg Glazed Donuts
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 350° F and grease your donuts pans.
- In a large bowl add your sugar, vanilla extract, oil, and sour cream. Whisk until well combined.
- Add your eggs in one at a time, mixing in between until incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, add your flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and mulling spices, and whisk until well combined.
- Add 1/3 of your dry ingredients mixture into your wet ingredients and whisk until just incorporated. Add half your cider and mix again.
- Again, add another 1/3 of your dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to over mix. Add the second half of your cider and mix until just combined. Then add your last 1/3 of dry ingredients and whisk until combined.
- Pour your batter into your greased donut pans and and bake at 350℉ for 10-12 minutes. I filled mine up a about 3/4 the way full.
- Remove from oven and let cool then using a butter knife gently help release your donuts from the pan. Continue with the rest of your batter.
- To make the glaze, add your cider and powdered sugar into a bowl and stir until combined. If glaze is too thick add a small splash more of cider, milk or water and if your glaze is too thin, add more powdered sugar.
- Once all your donuts are baked and cooled slightly, dip into your glaze and set on a cooling wrack to set up.
- Sprinkle with a dash of nutmeg and a pinch of orange zest.
