Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Adjust an oven rack to upper-middle position. Spray a donut pan with cooking spray.
- Sift flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
- Whisk buttermilk, eggs, baking soda, and vanilla extract together in a smaller bowl.
- Pour melted and cooled shortening into flour mixture and stir until absorbed. Add buttermilk mixture and mix well. Let batter rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Pour a scant tablespoon of batter into the well of each donut cup in the prepared pan. Use the back of a spoon to distribute batter evenly across the bottom of each; you won't use up all of the batter in this batch.
- Bake in the preheated oven on the upper-middle rack until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven; let cool in the pan for 2 to 3 minutes before removing onto a wire rack.
- Place powdered sugar into a small paper bag. Toss warm doughnuts in powdered sugar to coat.
- Spray the donut pan with cooking spray again. Spoon batter in tablespoonfuls into the hot pan for the next batch.
- Bake donuts in the preheated oven on the upper-middle rack until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes before removing from the pan and toss in powdered sugar.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F Lightly grease or spray a non-stick 6 count doughnut pan. Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk the sugar, egg, pumpkin, buttermilk and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until just combined. Fill the pan three-quarters full in each well. Lightly sprinkle the tops with brown sugar. Bake for 11-12 minutes, until golden and an inserted toothpick comes out dry. Let cool for 5 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack.
- Recipe can easily be doubled. I baked for 12 minutes, but, depending on your stove temp, these might be better cooked for 10 minutes.
CHOCOLATE BAKED BUTTERMILK DONUTS
This is a recipe adapted from the recipe that came on the back of the Nordicware dounut pan I bought at Target. I glaze them with my recipe Yummy Vanilla Glaze. Your donut yield will depend on how full you fill the donut cups in the pan. Somewhere between 1/2 and 2/3 is about right.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F Grease and flour pan. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir in buttermilk, eggs, butter and vanilla; beat until just combined. Fill each well 2/3 full. Bake 10-12 minutes, until the top of the donuts spring back when lightly touched. Cool 5 minutes in pan; invert onto cooling rack and cool completely. Glaze and decorate if desired.
Tips:
- Use fresh buttermilk for the best flavor and texture. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the donuts tough.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the donuts. If the oil is too hot, the donuts will burn. If the oil is not hot enough, the donuts will be greasy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the donuts. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the donuts will not cook evenly.
- Drain the donuts on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Glaze the donuts while they are still warm. This will help the glaze to set and give the donuts a shiny finish.
Conclusion:
Baked buttermilk donuts are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these donuts at home and enjoy them with your family and friends.
