Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 3/4 cups sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg (don't leave this out!)
  • 1 cup buttermilk (you can use whole milk)
  • 2 Tbsp butter (melted)
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup sprinkles plus more for topping
  • for the glaze
  • 1 1/4 cups confectioner's sugar
  • 2 Tbsp milk or cream
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Set oven to 350F
  • Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg.
  • Add the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and mix just until combined. Fold in the 1/3 cup sprinkles.
  • Spray your non-stick doughnut pan and fill the holes about 3/4 of the way full. An easy way to do this is to transfer the batter into a large baggie and cut a small hole in the corner. Pipe the batter into the holes.
  • Bake for about 12-14 minutes until the doughnuts are dry on top and spring back when lightly touched.
  • Let cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan.
  • Make the glaze by mixing the sifted sugar with the milk and vanilla. Add a little more milk if the glaze seems too thick. Add more sugar if it seems too thin.
  • When the doughnuts are completely cool, dip them, top down, into the glaze. Add sprinkles before the glaze sets up.
