Sweet Memories: Fresh Apple Cider Donuts Straight from the Orchard

I remember us snagging more apples than we knew what to do with! Luckily, all of us loved to snack on apples.

A trip to the orchard was not complete until we bought a dozen (or so) of the fresh apple cider donuts. We'd watch as the donuts moved along the conveyer belt and get sprinkled with some powdered sugar.

My sister and I would always sneak one or two out of the box before we even made it back to the car!

Then in college, my friends and roommates would always make sure to put an apple orchard day trip on the calendar. Even during COVID we made sure to find ways to safely get out and enjoy those fall days.
