Cheesefare Recipe: Willie's Doughnuts
Willie’s Doughnuts
1 c sugar
2 T melted butter
2 eggs
1 c milk
½ t salt
3 t baking powder
1 t cinnamon
1 t nutmeg
3 ½ c flour
Oil for frying
powdered sugar
Measure flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg into a large mixing bowl. In a smaller bowl beat eggs until light, then add milk and butter. Pour into flour mixture. Stir until dough is firm and well mixed.
Cut with a doughnut cutter (or by hand).
Heat oil to 325°F. (Or between medium and high)
Fry doughnuts. Brown on one side, turning only once. Cool and roll in powdered sugar.
(Chocolate frosting is nice on these, too. A simple glaze can be made by melting chocolate chips and thinning the mixture with a bit of milk.)
It takes a while but once you get the knack of frying these, it becomes obvious when the oil needs to be turned up or down.
