Ingredients

vegetable oil for frying
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground nutmeg
¼ cup heavy whipping cream

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
