Hey Folks,
I hope this post finds you well. Finally, I wanted to post this awesome recipe for apple cider donuts. I found this recipe via My Darling Vegan. True story, I have actually made these donuts a few times, but I finally ate something before so I can take my time and capture better pictures. They are really just that good!
Baking is certainly not something I thought I would get into, but I am adding it to the list. I find it hard to get really great tasting baked goods that are also vegan. These apple cider donuts definitely fit the bill, however. I love the cinnamon taste and the unexpected spice. Before I became a vegan, I used to love those cake gas station donuts. However, those contain so many carbs and sodium that I am glad I found a better version.
