Hello John,
The only bbq sauce that I can find with the name "atomic balm" was printed
in the Contra Costa Times from California, and does not mention Texas at all.
See below.

Hello Gloria,
See below.
Phaed
Apple-Cider Doughnuts with Maple Glaze
Doughnuts
Approx. 3 Tbsp. sugar for preparing pans
2 cups all-purpose white flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup apple butter
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1/3 cup apple cider
1/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt
3 Tbsp. vegetable oil,
preferably canola oil
Maple Glaze
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1/4-1/3 cup pure maple syrup
To make Doughnuts:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat molds of a mini-Bundt pan with
nonstick cooking spray or oil.
Sprinkle with sugar, shaking out excess.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt
and cinnamon; set aside.
In another bowl, whisk together egg, brown sugar, apple butter, maple syrup,
cider, yogurt and oil. Add dry ingredients and stir just until moistened.
Divide half the batter among the prepared molds, spooning about 2 generous
tablespoonfuls of batter into each mold. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until
the tops spring back when touched lightly. Loosen edges and turn the cakes
out onto a rack to cool. Clean the mini-Bundt pan, then re-coat it with oil
and sugar. Repeat with the remaining batter.
To make maple glaze:
In a bowl, combine confectioner's sugar and vanilla.
Gradually whisk in enough maple syrup to make a coating consistency.
Dip the shaped side (underside) of the "doughnuts" in the glaze to coat.
Then set them, glazed-side up on a rack over wax paper for a few minutes
until the glaze has set.
