Time 25m

Yield 48 doughnuts

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 cups flour
7 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups mashed potatoes
3 eggs, well beaten
2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 cup milk
oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Sift first three ingredients together.
  • Beat potatoes, eggs, sugar, melted butter together; add nutmeg and milk and stir.
  • Add sifted ingredients and stir until just blended; chill.
  • Preheat the oil to 375F in a large saucepan or stockpot.
  • Place about 1/3 of the dough at a time on a lightly floured board, sprinkle surface lightly with flour and roll to 3/8" thickness (the dough should be just stiff enough to handle; the softer the dough, the more tender the doughnut).
  • Cut with a doughnut cutter dipped in flour.
  • Fry until golden brown.
  • Drain on paper towels for a few seconds; roll in granulated or confectioners' sugar, if desired.

I've tried several different mashed potato doughnut recipes and this one is my favorite. The doughnuts are light and fluffy, and the potato flavor is just right.

These doughnuts are a bit more dense than traditional doughnuts, but they're still very good. I like to serve them with a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

These doughnuts were a bit greasy for my taste. I think I might have used too much oil in the frying process.

I had a hard time getting the doughnuts to rise. I think I might have overmixed the batter.
