Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 18 servings

Doughnuts:

  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, or more to taste

  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ cup milk

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 5 tablespoons softened butter

  • ⅓ cup white sugar

  • 1 large egg

Cinnamon-Sugar Coating:

  • ⅓ cup white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease donut baking pans or miniature muffin cups.

  2. To make the donuts: Whisk flour, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl. Stir milk and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl. Beat butter and sugar together in a third bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; beat in egg.

  3. Stir flour mixture, alternating with milk mixture, into butter mixture until batter is smooth. Spoon batter into a piping bag and pipe into donut pans or muffin cups.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes.

  5. To make the coating: Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl.

  6. Add warm donuts to cinnamon-sugar mixture; gently toss with hands until coated.
