Broad Street Dough Co. in Wall Township is now open and our Promotions Director and resident sweetheart, Jackie bought us some to try! You might remember I wrote about this place when they first announce they were opening almost a year and a half ago. Well, yesterday was the big Grand Opening, and this morning our own little Jackie grabbed some for the kid's last day of school, the moms at the bus stop, and her buddies at the tin shack on 18th Avenue, The Rat!

Top 7 Spots To Get Apple Cider Donuts On Or Near The Jersey Shore

Apple cider donuts….yummmmm! Soft, pillowy, and oh so delightful. From the beginning of Autumn until the time Christmas arrives, people talk about these sweet tender gems as if they could not live without them.

Most of us have had them at least once. I don’t recall ever having them before I lived in New Jersey. I think I may have had them in upstate New York back in the 80’s, but my memory is vague on the subject. If I did have them, you would think I would remember clearly wrapping my lips around this sweet handheld treat. Maybe it just wasn’t a memorable experience.

I do however remember my very first apple cider donut here in New Jersey back in the late 1990’s. It was a Delicious Orchards apple cider donut, with a cup of warm cider also from Delicious Orchards during the Fall months.

I also remember a listener dropping off a couple packages of apple cider donuts to the radio station, along with a huge container of mulled cider she made in her crockpot. We added rum to the cider after she left. That’s just how we roll, always looking to up the cider game.

I once met someone from out of state who didn’t like apple cider donuts. She said, “I don’t understand why people go ape s**t over these things.” They are nothing more than dry plain donuts rolled in cinnamon sugar.” She may not have had them from some of the “go to” places here in New Jersey.

If I’m not enjoying an apple cider donut with mulled cider, I am enjoying it with a hot cup of tea, or a cold glass of milk.
There is only one thing better than eating an apple cider donut. Eating a warm, just out of the fryer or oven, apple cider donut. I know lots of places fry their donuts, but oven baked donuts are good too.
I’m sure with enough research I can formulate a recipe for these seasonal sweet treats.

In the meantime, let’s take a look at a few places on or near the Jersey Shore who sell delicious apple cider donuts.

Delicious Orchards - 320 NJ-34, Colts Neck, NJ 07722

60,000 square feet of absolute goodness. Fresh produce, meats, spices, teas, and a bakery that makes mountains of apple cider donuts. I can literally spend 4 hours and an entire week's pay in this place.

Main Street Donuts - 705 Main St, Belmar, NJ 07719 & 141 Main St, Matawan, NJ 07747

On their website: "At Main Street Donuts we strive to bring you old time, heart warming confections of fresh donuts, made right before your very own eyes." The homemade Apple Cider Spice donut should only leave the store accompanied by, The Apple Pie Donut- A vanilla donut with apple filling topped with vanilla lattice vanilla whip & cinnamon sugar.

There's always a line for their freshly made Apple Cider Donuts.  However long you have to wait, it will be totally worth it.

Ob-Co's Donuts - 547 Fischer Blvd, Toms River, NJ 08753

My favorite old school donut shop has lots of Fall flavors including Cinnamon Apple Cider rolled in warm cinnamon sugar. It's hard to walk out of here without at least a dozen donuts, a few apple fritters, and a breakfast sandwich. Yeah, that was my last order.

Twin Pond Farm - 1459 US-9, Howell Township, NJ 07731

All of the baked goods in their country store are worthy of being on your table. Dozens of pie flavors including Caramel Apple Nut, and Sweet Potato , and of course, their killer Apple Cider donuts.

Please don't stop after enjoying their incredible Maple Bacon Donut. These babies are made to order, so you're heading home with warm fresh donuts.

Village Donuts - 45 Cassville Rd, Jackson Township, NJ 08527

I had to include another old school place that makes some of the most incredible donuts. The Apple Cider Donut is absolute perfection.
