Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F (190° C).

Step 2

Grease your doughnut pan (if needed).

Step 3

Prepare your flax egg by whisking together ground flax seeds and water. Set aside to thicken.

Step 4

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix the apple cider, oil, vanilla extract, and flax mixture together.

Step 6

Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix well to combine. Don't over mix.

Step 7

Using a piping bag or a large Ziploc bag (see note below), pipe the mixture into each cavity of your doughnut pan.

Step 8

Bake for 10 minutes.

Step 9

Remove from oven and let the pan sit for a few minutes before removing the doughnuts.

Step 10

Remove the doughnuts from the pan and place on a cooling rack.

Step 11

Add the sugar and cinnamon to a small bowl and mix together.

Step 12

When the doughnuts have fully cooled, one at a time, brush the tops with a little of the melted coconut oil (or butter) and dip each one into the sugar topping until the top is coated. Repeat with all the doughnuts.
