Serves:

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Oil for frying
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.

  2. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

  4. Heat oil in a deep saucepan or pot to a temperature of 350°F (175°C).

  5. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/2 inch thickness and cut into desired shapes using a doughnut cutter or round cookie cutter.

  9. Serve warm and enjoy!
