Yield Makes about 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons solid vegetable shortening, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Vegetable oil (for frying)
Powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Place 1 1/2 cups flour and 1 1/4 cups sugar in large bowl. Add buttermilk and next 7 ingredients. Using electric mixer, beat mixture until just smooth. Beat in remaining 1 cup flour. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours.
  • Turn dough out onto floured work surface; roll to 1/2-inch thickness. Using 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut dough into rounds. Using 1-inch round cookie cutter, cut hole from center of each round, making doughnuts. Gather scraps and reroll dough, cutting additional doughnuts until dough is used up.
  • Pour oil into heavy large pot to depth of 5 inches. Heat oil to 350°F. Add 3 doughnuts at a time to oil and fry until golden, turning once, about 6 minutes total. Using slotted spoon, transfer to paper-towel-lined rack to drain. Repeat with remaining doughnuts. Cool. Sift powdered sugar thickly over doughnuts.

I'm not a fan of doughnuts, but these buttermilk doughnuts changed my mind. They're so good, I could eat a dozen of them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my doughnuts turned out a little too dense. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These doughnuts were good, but not great. They were a little dry and the glaze was a bit too sweet. I'll try making them again with a different glaze.

I was a little disappointed with these doughnuts. They were a bit too greasy for my taste. I'll try making them again with less oil.
