Ingredients

• •2 cups all-purpose flour
• •1/2 cup granulated sugar
• •2 teaspoons baking powder
• •1/2 teaspoon salt
• •1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• •1 large egg
• •1/2 cup whole milk
• •2 tablespoons melted butter
• •1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• •2 cups vegetable oil for frying
• •1/2 cup granulated sugar for coating
• •1 teaspoon cinnamon for coating

Directions

1. 1Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl.
2. 2In another bowl, beat egg, then add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
3. 3Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined; do not overmix.
4. 4Heat oil to 350°F in a deep pan or fryer; transfer batter to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
5. 5Carefully pipe 3-inch rings of batter into the hot oil, frying 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown.
6. 6Remove donuts with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

💡 Cake doughnuts brown before their centres are done when the oil runs too hot; test one first and adjust the heat before frying the full batch.
