  • Preparation Time: 30 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 1 minute
  • Total Time: 31 minutes
  • Servings: 12 doughnuts

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups biscuit mix
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup apple butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 1/4 cup milk (for glaze)
  • 3 tablespoons apple butter (for glaze)
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (for coating)
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Dough:

    • In a mixing bowl, combine biscuit mix and sugar until well mixed.
  2. Create Dough Mixture:

    • In another bowl, whisk together the egg, 1/2 cup of apple butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
    • Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth dough forms.
  3. Chill Dough:

    • Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to firm up.
  4. Roll Out Dough:

    • Once chilled, transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it gently 8-10 times.
    • Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  5. Cut Doughnuts:

    • Using a floured doughnut cutter, cut out doughnut shapes from the rolled dough.
  6. Fry Doughnuts:

    • In a deep fryer or large pot, heat vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).
    • Carefully fry the doughnuts in batches, cooking for about 30 seconds on each side or until they turn golden brown.
    • Use a slotted spoon to remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  7. Prepare Glaze:

    • In a shallow bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, milk, and 3 tablespoons of apple butter until smooth and well combined.
    • Dip each warm doughnut into the glaze, coating both sides evenly.
  8. Coat with Nuts:

    • Immediately after dipping in the glaze, roll the doughnuts in chopped nuts, ensuring they adhere well to the surface.
  9. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Serve the apple butter doughnuts warm and fresh for the best flavor and texture. They are perfect for breakfast, dessert, or as a special treat any time of the day.

These Apple Butter Doughnuts are a delightful fusion of flavors and textures, combining the sweetness of apple butter with the crunchiness of nuts and the softness of perfectly fried dough. Treat yourself and your loved ones to this delicious homemade delight today! 🍩🍏✨
