Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 Tbsp melted butter
  • 3 tsp cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt; mix until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and oil. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until combined.
  4. Fill each donut cavity halfway with the batter. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. Allow donuts to cool for 5 minutes before turning them out onto a wire rack.
  6. For the coating, melt the butter in a shallow dish. In another bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  7. Dip each warm donut in the melted butter and then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture until coated.
  8. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for a few days.
