PEAR BUTTER OR APPLE BUTTER DOUGHNUTS
I made some pear butter this year for the first time and had found this apple butter doughnut recipe so thought I would try it with the pear butter. Use your holdiday cookie cutters to add a little seasonal flair to them. To give credit to the person this recipe came from was Mary June Donavan in Clinton Mass. Thanks Mary June...

Tips:
- Use fresh apples. Fresh apples will give your apple butter doughnuts the best flavor. If you can, use a variety of apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
- Make your own apple butter. Homemade apple butter is the best way to ensure that your doughnuts have the best flavor. However, if you're short on time, you can use store-bought apple butter.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your doughnuts tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fry the doughnuts at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for frying doughnuts is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If the oil is too hot, the doughnuts will brown too quickly and be raw in the center. If the oil is too cool, the doughnuts will absorb too much oil and be greasy.
- Drain the doughnuts on paper towels. After frying the doughnuts, drain them on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Dust the doughnuts with powdered sugar. Dusting the doughnuts with powdered sugar is a classic way to finish them off. You can also glaze the doughnuts with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk.

Apple butter doughnuts are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these doughnuts at home that will rival any bakery. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give apple butter doughnuts a try!
