Bite Sized Toffee Apple Doughnuts Recipes

Steps:

• For the batter, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
• Mix in the egg and buttermilk.
• Gradually stir in the milk.
• Next, core the apples and slice vertically into doughnut-size rings. Each apple should give you about 3 rings.
• Heat the oil in a deep frying pan to 180˚C (350°F).
• Evenly coat each apple slice in the batter mix.
• Carefully lay the doughnuts into the oil and fry for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towel before coating in sugar.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Grease a large baking tray, a spatula and a metal tablespoon with oil. For the toffee, put the sugar, golden syrup, vinegar and butter in a small saucepan and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved.
• Meanwhile, cut the apples into chunky slices, about 1cm thick, and push a lollipop stick or wooden skewer through the edge so that the point reaches the centre - if your skewers are very long, cut them in half before using.
• Once the sugar has dissolved, turn up the heat and bring the mixture to the boil. Pop in a sugar thermometer and bubble until the temperature reaches 148C. Quickly remove from the heat and stir in the cream using the oiled spatula. Leave the toffee to cool and thicken a little, then hold the apple skewers over the pan, one at a time, and spoon over some of the toffee to thickly coat one side of the slice. Let any excess drip off around the edges, then transfer to the prepared tray, toffee-side up, and sprinkle with some chopped pecans, if using. If the toffee in the pan becomes too firm, gently heat to re-melt it.
• Leave the slices to cool until hardened, then drizzle over some dark chocolate, if using. Leave to set, then enjoy.
