    Can substitute apple juice for apple cider.

    Loved these but it does take longer to reduce the apple cider than stated in the recipe.

    I didn't love these-- they were too sweet for me. The reduced cider was delicious though and I would definitely make that again for another purpose.

    These are amazing and taste like cider donuts.

    We loved these! Most difficult part is reducing the cider (next time might use boiled cider) and judging the doneness of the cookies. The dough is darker due to cider and spices, and I overcooked some of them. Such a unique flavor and texture, chewy, spicy and tangy from the cider.

    These were good but maybe not worth the trouble. I used a wide bottomed pan to reduce the cider but it still takes a while. The dough is crazy sticky so rolling them is a mess. They also spread a lot so you have to bake them in many batches.

    This has a really nice apple flavor. The cinnamon sugar tastes delicious but dilutes the apple a bit. So I rolled some in the sugar and left some “plain.” Best of both worlds!

    I used honey crisp apple cider, but it didn't reduce enough, which left the batter rather liquidy. We instead put it in a loaf pan and incredibly it turned out a nice sliceable loaf. The flavor is good and probably even more concentrated in cookie form.
