“Your house smells too much like cinnamon apples”… said no one ever! I should stock up on these candles and have my house smell like this all year round. It just makes me feel good. It’s the little things in life we should take time to enjoy. There are so many things you can do with apple juice or cider including drinks, sauces, marinades, etc. The big difference between juice and cider is that the cider is unfiltered with a more luxe apple flavor after pressing the apples. Spiced cider is usually already premixed with spices like nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. You can also make a hot apple cider by mulling the spices or make a cocktail by adding dark rum or bourbon.
My kids are donut fanatics, and they love this time of year when apple cider donuts hit the grocery stores. I decided not to wait and converted the donuts into a loaf cake with a delicious maple glaze on top having coffee shops wishing they had them to sell in their stores. This thing didn’t stand a chance in my household. It was as good as it looks too. Sure to be a crowd pleaser for a holiday breakfast spread or whenever you are needing your fall fix. The maple, vanilla, cinnamon and apple flavors just belong together. No matter whether its a bundt cake, donut, cupcake or loaf shape cake, when life gives you apples, make cider cake.
