My youngest granddaughter is a donut queen! She just loves donuts, guess she gets is honestly from her Mom and Grandmother! :-) So that being said, here's an easy to make donut recipe, that I saw in a recent email, that can be made right in your own home. This will save you time by not having to go to Dunkin' Donuts for your treat. Make donut holes too!
Buttermilk Doughnuts
48 Servings Prep: 20 min. + chilling Cook: 5 min./batch
Ingredients
4 eggs
2 cups sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5-1/2 to 6 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cups buttermilk
Oil for deep-fat frying
Additional sugar, cinnamon-sugar or confectioners' sugar, optional
Directions
In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar until light and lemon-colored. Add butter and vanilla; mix well. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg; add to egg mixture alternately with buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 3-in. doughnut cutter. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry doughnuts, a few at a time, for 1 minute on each side or until golden. Drain on paper towels. Roll in additional sugar if desired.
