Apple Cider Baked Donuts

If you are anything like me, you love Autumn flavours all year round. There is something so warm and cozy about baked apples, whether that is in a pie, muffin, or baked donuts. Apples are also a versatile fruit that can add a lot of natural sweetness to a dessert. Applesauce can even act as an egg replacement.

These Apple Cider Donuts are dense, moist and have a strong apple flavour with the shredded apples, applesauce and apple cider vinegar. The quinoa flour balances it all out perfectly adding a nutty flavour to bring it all together.
