I love making homemade donuts. A lot of people think it’s hard to make donuts at home, but donuts are incredibly easy, especially since they’re baked and not fried.
Perfect for breakfast or dessert, these apple and chocolate chip donuts are so good you want to make them all the time.
When making these cake donuts, you’ll want to make sure you store them properly. You want to make sure the donuts are protected from the air. When exposed to air, it deteriorates faster.
Donuts will last about 3 days before they start to spoil and go bad. You can also freeze these donuts to help them last longer.
Whenever I make donuts like these, I like to do extras to freeze the baked donuts. This makes it possible to have apple fritters on hand when I want them. To freeze the donuts, after cooking, let the donuts cool completely.
Since these donuts are covered in chocolate frosting, you’ll want to wait until the frosting is set, or freeze the donuts before wrapping them. Once the donuts are frozen, wrap the donuts in waxed paper before moving the apple donuts to a freezer bag or airtight container.
It’s a great way to take out a donut or two at a time to thaw it for breakfast .
