Ingredients
  

Doughnuts

  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour

  • 0.5 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 2 large eggs

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat to 350°F (175°C).
  • Drop spoonfuls of dough into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  • Remove doughnuts from the oil with a slotted spoon and place on a wire rack set over paper towels to drain.
  • For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Dip the warm doughnuts into the glaze, letting any excess drip off. Place back on the wire rack to set.
