Donut Ingredients

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix. Let the dough rest for about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil (for frying) over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Donuts

    Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough into the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Dust with Cinnamon Sugar

    In a separate bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and cinnamon. While the donuts are still warm, toss them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Place the dusted donuts in a paper bag for serving, and enjoy them warm.
