To put it simply, the freshly made doughnuts at Wilken’s Farm are just what you want in an apple cider doughnut. They are fried to an even golden brown and served with a dusting of cinnamon sugar, although you can also request them plain if you want. Kids can kill time while waiting in line for their treats by watching the doughnut machine, which is in full view at work.

(914) 271-2254
While the big draw to Thompson’s Cider Mill is well, the cider (the freshly pressed cider can contain anywhere from seven to 30 different varieties of apples, depending upon when you buy it), the cinnamon sugar-dusted doughnuts are a pretty tasty reason to visit as well.
