1½ cups Namaste Perfect Flour Blend or Organic Perfect Flour Blend

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray two 6-cavity donut pans with oil.
2. In a medium pot over medium-high heat, reduce 1 ½ cups of apple cider down to 3/4 cup. Set aside to cool.
3. In a large bowl cream together sugar and room temperature butter with electric mixer until light and creamy. About 3-4 minutes.
4. Add egg to sugar mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.
