Long Island Apple Cider Donuts are a right of autumnal passage for me and my family each and every year. Apple picking, pumpkin picking, pumpkin beer, and Long Island apple cider donuts. This just screams and shouts fall to me, and I think it has the same effect on many people on the Island and around the country. And for good reason…they are awesome. Period, end of statement. Nothing more really needs to be said, does it?
