Let me tell you about our sourdough apple c***r donuts. When I found out that many of the local go-tos for apple c***r donuts were making them with a mass produced powdered donut mix I was shocked and inspired all at the same time. I knew we had to see what we could do with real whole ingredients and our obsession with everything sourdough. So we did just that! First we make a 24 hour low and slow seasoned apple butter made from our favorite soft and sweet apples. We then create an apple c***r syrup using local c***r to ensure a perfectly prominent apple c***r flavor. We then combine the homemade apple butter and c***r concentrate with our active sourdough starter and a few other mostly organic quality ingredients and give the dough a long fermentation before frying them fresh on Friday mornings! They are perfectly spiced, full of apple flavor, and fluffy, never dense. There are a few left at the stand and more to come on Friday! Stay tuned for pumpkin donuts soon too!
Today we also have blueberry muffins, maple pecan scones, original, sea salt, cinnamon swirl, and flaky butter croissant loaves. Enjoy!
