Old Fashion Sour Cream Donuts image

Delicious and moist, this donut taste like Grandmas pound cake, covered in silky glaze. Don't let the name fool you, it is not sour AT ALL. Delicious cake like donut that it so easy to make and melts in your mouth.

Time 25m

Yield 6 Donuts

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/8 cups cake flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4-1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon shortening or 1 tablespoon vegetable lard, trans-fat-free preferred
1 large egg yolk
1/3 cup sour cream
canola oil (for frying)
1 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
3/4 teaspoon light corn syrup
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons hot water (plus more if needed)

Steps:

  • Sift your dry ingredients in a medium size bowl, set aside.
  • In another bowl, mix your wet ingredients.
  • Add your dry ingredients into the wet, mix 1/3 of the flour mixture, stir well. Add another 1/3, mix well and so forth.
  • Refrigerate for an hour.
  • Flour your surface and roll your dough out to 1/2" thick. Using a biscut cutter or glass, cut out doughnuts. Use a smaller cutter to cut out the holes. If you don't have a smaller one, a pill bottle works well too to cut out the holes. Use your imagination, you will find something.
  • Heat about 2" of oil over low-medium heat to 325, use a candy thermometer for this. Don't have one? Get one! It can make all the difference in how a recipe turns out .When oil has reached 325 keep an eye on it! Once you have started heating your oil, DO NOT LEAVE IT, EVER! Bad things can happen, very bad!
  • Fry your donuts until browned on each side, drain on wire rack or paper towels.
  • Dip in your glaze and give a few minutes for the glaze to set up.
  • For the Glaze: Mix everything in the order it's listed, add more water for a thinner glaze.

These donuts were a huge disappointment. They were dry, dense, and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my donuts turned out flat and dense. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These donuts were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I may have used too much flour in the batter.

The donuts were a bit greasy for my taste. I think I may have used too much oil in the frying process.

I had a bit of trouble getting the donuts to rise properly. I think I may have overmixed the batter.

These donuts were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using a bit less sugar next time.

The glaze on these donuts was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend using a bit more milk next time.

These donuts were a bit more dense than I expected, but they were still very good. I would recommend using a bit less flour next time.

I've tried many sour cream donut recipes, but this one is by far the best. The donuts are so moist and flavorful, and the glaze is to die for.

These donuts were a hit with my family! They were light and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The glaze was the perfect finishing touch.
