My thoughts:
It's apple cider time again. We bought a jug yesterday and I thought it would be fun to do something with it besides just drinking it. I had heard of (but never have had the good fortune to taste) apple cider doughnuts and felt the next logical evolution of apple cider baked goods should be cupcakes. They are suprisingly light and fluffy. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to taste the apple cider but you really can and tell that it is apple cider (which I like) and not apple juice (which I don't).

I went to go get cider donuts on Sunday, but there was a 1 MILE backup to the farm!! WTF??? No cider donuts for Jeffster *pout*
I love apple cider anything.
I made these last night with some local, fresh cider and they were delicious. What a great recipe!
Cider Donuts at Weber's Farm in Perry Hall area in the fall- you must get them!
You like apple cider and not apple juice? Interesting. Have you had quality apple juice? It tastes pretty close to cider. The recipe sounds amazing, btw!
After my recent bad experience with apple cider cupcakes, I welcome this recipe with open arms!
