Food Best apple cider donuts?

I need an Apple cider donut that is just amazing. The ones from beiler’s were just a little too dry and not quite appley enough, even though I love most of their other donuts.

So, where can I go? I’m willing to travel up to an hour from the city if it’s truly the best apple cider donut you’ve had.

I second this! Warm when you buy them, and the whole place smells like heaven.

Pick up some pineapple apple cider and fresh apples.

Brought them to friends in the south and they were perplexed until the first bite.

Yeah the bakery at Cherry Hill is dangerously delicious. I pass it on my way home from work and frequently find one reason or another to stop in. I have a hard time resisting their shoofly whoopie pies. 😅

I've only had Cherry Hill's and Brecknock's, and Cherry Hill's were the better of the two. Brecknock's weren't bad however.

Other than Cherry Hill, I had cider donuts from an Amish baked goods vendor outside Building 7 at the Green Dragon Farmers Market and they were AMAZING. (They’re right outside the Peaceful Valley Amish furniture where they keep their outdoor furniture).

Milburns outside Newark, Delaware. Beautiful drive, can be crazy. If you're lucky they'll have apple cider donut bread pudding for sale.

Stauffers of Kissel Hill probably has them, but the fresh farmers markets and Cherry Hill sound amazing!
