Apple Cider Doughnut Muffins

[superbadgirl]

We had our first windy storm today. Perfect baking weather! I'd had a hankering to make some apple cider doughnut muffins for a while. I didn't have an exact match for this recipe, so I made some minor adjustments

These look great! I think your link at the start isn't working?

[superbadgirl]

Hmm, it works for me. I'll see if I can figure it out! :)

[superbadgirl]

Ah, shoot. I edited the post to another recipe I thought looked good. Best laid plans...

These are really a quick (well, if you buy the boiled cider) and delicious breakfast!

These look amazing. I will definitely have to make these sometime very soon!

Question: do you think I could substitute Apfelkorn liqueur for the boiled cider? It has a very strong apple flavor, but might not be thick enough?

[superbadgirl]

I would encourage it. ;)

The syrup was mostly to amp up the apple flavor - original recipe called for 1/2 cup sugar rather than 1/3 I used, so you might give a rounded 1/3 cup to adjust the sweetness from the syrup back in.

I'm curious, what does the coconut oil bring to the recipe beyond what butter or other fats might bring? Does it impart a coconut flavor?

Can't wait to try these though :-)

[superbadgirl]

Nothing, I'm just obsessed with coconut oil at the moment. No coconut flavor detected!

Ahh, makes perfect sense to me! Thanks for clarifying :-)

These sound SO GOOD. I have such a craving for apple-y stuff right now. I am definitely buying apply cider next time I'm at the farmer's market so I can make these!

I'll bet an apple compote in the middle would be marvelous too. :)
