Each fall I look forward to going to apple orchards and pumpkin patches for lots of fall fun and of course, apple cider donuts! I tweaked one of my favorite recipes {meltaway mini muffins} to recreate the fall favorite without the fuss. These baked apple cider donut holes are quick, easy, bite sized goodness and eliminate the need for a donut pan! For the ultimate Fall experience, dip them in caramel sauce!
