1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 extra-large egg, lightly beaten

  • To make sure the doughnuts are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, they are done.
  • If you don't have a doughnut pan, you can use a muffin tin. Just grease the cups and fill them with batter.

  • For a more decadent doughnut, fill them with your favorite jam, jelly, or pudding.
