Donuts or Doughnuts, these are easy to prepare, and they are delicious! Amount made will depend on the size of your donut cutter. I made 14 donuts using a 3¼ inch donut cutter, and the last bit of dough I just made some extra holes. I made these on 17 Feb 2022 and I, my wife, and several relatives tasted these and everyone says these are excellent.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in your deep fryer to 190° C (375° F).
- Add the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg to a mixing bowl, and whisk together. Add the egg to a measuring cup and add the milk, whisk together with a fork. Melt the butter.
- Stir the butter into the flour mixture and mix with a spoon until crumbly.
- Stir in the egg and milk until mixture is smooth, if dough seems too thin, sprinkle in a tablespoon of flour and mix in. The dough is very sticky but do not let that concern you.
- Place dough on a well floured work surface and roll out with a well floured pin to about ¼ inch thickness.
- Using a donut cutter or different sized biscuit cutters, cut dough into rings. After those rings and holes are cooked, shape the scraps into a ball, roll and cut more rings and holes.
- Carefully place 2-3 rings, plus the holes, in the deep fryer depending on the size of the fryer, use of the basket is your preference. Fry for about 2-3 minutes, turning when the bottom is golden brown. The holes basically turn themselves over. I cooked two donuts at a time, plus their holes. The basket is in the fryer but I placed the donuts in with my hands and used chop sticks to turn them and remove them.
- Drain the cooked donuts on paper towels, let the oil reach the cooking temp again, and continue until all batches are fried. Serve and enjoy.
