Old-Fashioned Cake Doughnuts Donuts

Features:
    Cuisine:

    These doughnuts are delicious! They are exactly like the ones I remember making with my mom when I was a kid. They are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Some people commented that they were flavorless. I couldn't disagree more. The nutmeg definitely comes through. They aren't overly sweet, but they are definitely sweet enough. I love them plain for dunking in milk or coffee, but if you need more sweetness or flavor, you can always dust them with powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar, or you can make a glaze.

    Old-Fashioned Cake Doughnuts (Donuts), There’s nothing better than homemade doughnuts! I like cake donuts better than yeast donuts This is how I make my favorite doughnuts for my family on the weekends Real simple ingredients you already have on hand The hardest part is letting the dough chill for an hour before frying them You can make the dough the night before and have them ready to go in the morning, that’s what I do 😉 either douse them in cinnamon sugar or icing sugar or (you get the idea) use a dough hook on my Stand Mixer which makes this real easy to whip up NOTE: Prep time does not include chill time , These doughnuts are delicious! They are exactly like the ones I remember making with my mom when I was a kid They are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside Some people commented that they were flavorless I couldn’t disagree more The nutmeg definitely comes through They aren’t overly sweet, but they are definitely sweet enough I love them plain for dunking in milk or coffee, but if you need more sweetness or flavor, you can always dust them with powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar, or you can make a glaze , Can I print the donut recipe on my computer?

    In a Large Bowl Mix the Sugar, Baking Powder, Salt and Nutmeg.

    2
    Done

    Add Eggs, Milk and Melted Butter. Beat Well.

    3
    Done

    Add 3 Cups of the Flour, Beating Until Blended. Add One More Cup of Flour and Beat Well. the Dough Should Be Soft and Sticky but Firm Enough to Handle. If You Feel Its Necessary, Add Up to 1/2 Cup More Flour.

    4
    Done

    Cover With Plastic Wrap and Chill For *at* *least* One Hour.

    5
    Done

    Remove Your Dough from the Fridge and Begin Heating About 1" of Oil to 360f in a Large Metal Skillet.

    6
    Done

    Working Half the Dough at a Time, Roll It Out on a Floured Surface to About 1/2" Thickness. Cut Out Circles Using a Doughnut Cutter or Large Biscuit or Cookie Cutter. For the Center, I Actually Use the Cap Off My Martini Shaker ;) to Cut the Holes.

    7
    Done

    Gently Drop the Doughnuts in Batches Into the Hot Oil. Flip Them Over as They Puff and Turn Them a Couple More Times as They Cook. They Will Take About 2-3 Minutes in Total and Will Be Lovely and Golden Brown All Over.

    8
    Done

    Remove from the Oil and Set Them on Paper Towels or Brown Paper Bag (that Removes All the Fat, You Know).

    9
    Done

    Douse Them With Sugar and Cinnamon, Icing, Chocolate Dipped With Sprinkles or Whatever You Like.
