Preheat oven to 425°F. Prepare donut pan with vegetable cooking spray.
In large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon. Add cider, eggs and butter; beat by hand until just combined. Fill each pan cavity approximately 2/3 full.
Bake 9-10 minutes or until the tops of the donuts spring back when touched. Let cool in pan 4-5 minutes before removing. Donuts are best served fresh. Donuts may be topped with cinnamon sugar or apple cider glaze.
Apple Cider Glaze In small bowl, whisk together confectioners’ sugar and apple cider until smooth. Dip tops of donut in glaze and set on cooling grid, allowing glaze to drip. Serve immediately.
