Method

Preparation

1

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

2

Mix Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted unsalted butter until smooth.

Combine Ingredients

3

Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.

Frying

4

Heat Oil

In a deep pot or heavy skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

5

Form Donut Holes

Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, form the batter into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.

6

Fry Donut Holes

Carefully drop a few donut holes into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown, turning occasionally.

7

Drain and Cool

Remove the donut holes from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Coating

8

Mix Sugar and Cinnamon

In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.

9

Coat Donut Holes

While the donut holes are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
