Instructions for Doughnuts recipe
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, and mix well. Add the milk, egg, butter, and vanilla and mix until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Heat the oil in a deep fryer or deep frying pan to 185°C (370°F). Roll the chilled dough on a floured board to a 1/2 inch thickness. Use a donut cutter to cut the donuts.
