A Halloween morning treat. 
I started with this famous family recipe (below) from my Mom's awesome cookbook, then messed with it.
First, this makes tons, so cut the recipe in half. Then I adjusted the spices and used apple cider instead of buttermilk - I don't know how much (just poured til it looked right).
Topped them with a powdered sugar/apple cider glaze. If I'd have had more time I might have chopped up some apples (tiny) to put in the batter.
They are cooked in this old '70s donut cooker (below). Not deep fried, so almost good for you!! :)
Of course you CAN deep fry them, or maybe they'd be good if you filled muffin cups about half full and baked them. Let me know of you try that!
