Recipe from Taste of Home The Cook Book:
Buttermilk Doughnuts
4 eggs
2 cups granulated sugar
1/3 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 cups of flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups buttermilk
Oil to deep fry
Mix of Granulated Sugar, cinnamon, and brown sugar to roll them in.
Beat Eggs and sugar until lemon colored. Add butter and vanilla, mix well. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. Add buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
Heat oil to 375 cook one minute on each side.
*ok i changed this up a tad, i did only half of this recipe and still had way too much for my family. I did not have buttermilk so i did one tablespoon of vinegar and one cup of regular milk per each cup of milk needed. I added the full amount of vanilla and nutmeg. I did little balls instead of full donuts, the two full donuts i did were just to big to handle. I do not have a deep fryer so i just heated my oil up on the stove and when the batter floated is when i knew it was ready. Also this batter is super super super sticky so i used a lot of flour as i went along making the balls and being in the dough. I just cant handle sticky things, with two little kids it reminds me of snot. lol! These are super tasty, kinda thick but still sooooo good and i highly recommend you try them. I am not a fan of making a batter then having to refrigerate it but it was worth the wait!*
I made these for Brenna's last day of school breakfast tomorrow. My kids never get junk like this first thing in the morning so i thought it would be a nice treat for her and a nice way for the teacher to remember my daughter - WIRED! lol! Again i really hope you try these!
