BUTTERMILK DOUGHNUTS



Buttermilk Doughnuts image

I know what you are thinking.. buttermilk doughnuts? I thought the same too until I tried these. I got this recipe from my husband's hometown church cookbook. Since I don't always have buttermilk on hand, I do however always have the dried buttermilk for baking. I prefer that then to fresh buttermilk in these. If you do use the dried stuff, make as directed on the carton and follow all steps below that are listed... Turns out the same and the taste is AWESOME.. You can make them chocolately with little work, you can add apples to the batter and frost with a cinnamon icing. there is absolutely nothing you can't do with these. Hope you all enjoy!

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

cooking spray
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons vegetable shortening, melted and cooled slightly
1 cup sifted powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Adjust an oven rack to upper-middle position. Spray a donut pan with cooking spray.
  • Sift flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
  • Whisk buttermilk, eggs, baking soda, and vanilla extract together in a smaller bowl.
  • Pour melted and cooled shortening into flour mixture and stir until absorbed. Add buttermilk mixture and mix well. Let batter rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Pour a scant tablespoon of batter into the well of each donut cup in the prepared pan. Use the back of a spoon to distribute batter evenly across the bottom of each; you won't use up all of the batter in this batch.
  • Bake in the preheated oven on the upper-middle rack until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven; let cool in the pan for 2 to 3 minutes before removing onto a wire rack.
  • Place powdered sugar into a small paper bag. Toss warm doughnuts in powdered sugar to coat.
  • Spray the donut pan with cooking spray again. Spoon batter in tablespoonfuls into the hot pan for the next batch.
  • Bake donuts in the preheated oven on the upper-middle rack until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes before removing from the pan and toss in powdered sugar.
