Buttermilk Doughnuts Donuts image

I got this recipe when I was a teenager and have been making it ever since. Anytime my nephews and nieces spend the night, they request these. They take some time but they sure are worth it!

Time 2h

Yield 14 doughnuts

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon dry active yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons shortening, melted (DO NOT use oil)
3 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2-3 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
vegetable oil
2 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large bowl; let stand 5 minutes.
  • Add buttermilk, shortening, sugar and 1 1/2 cup flour, baking powder and salt; mix well.
  • Add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
  • Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead several times.
  • Roll dough to 1/2 inch thick and cut with a 2 1/2 inch doughnut cutter.
  • Place doughnuts on lightly floured surface, cover and let rise 45 minutes or until double in bulk.
  • Heat 2-3 inches of oil to 375°F.
  • (I use my Fry Daddy) Drop in 4 or 5 doughnuts at a time.
  • Cook about 2 minutes or until lightly golden in color, turning once.
  • Drain well on paper towels.
  • Combine 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar with 1/4 cup milk, stir until smooth.
  • Dip each doughnut in glaze while still warm; allow excess glaze to drip off.
  • Cool on wire rack or serve warm.
