Title: Easy Buttermilk Baked Doughnuts
Ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
– 1/2 cup buttermilk
– 2 large eggs
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a doughnut pan with cooking spray or butter.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if a few lumps remain.
5. Spoon the batter into a piping bag or a large Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off. Pipe the batter into the prepared doughnut pan, filling each well about two-thirds full.
6. Bake the doughnuts in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until they spring back when lightly touched.
7. Allow the doughnuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tip: To make the glaze, whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar with 2-3 tablespoons of milk until smooth. Dip each cooled doughnut into the glaze and place them back on the wire rack to set.
