Ingredients
Donuts
1 cup white all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
dash of ground nutmeg
1 large egg
1/3 cup white sugar
2/3 cup sour cream
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
Cinnamon Sugar Glaze
1/2 cup confectioners sugar
1 tbsp milk
1/4 cup white sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
Donuts
Preheat oven to 350°F
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg
In a medium-sized bowl whisk together the egg, sugar, sour cream, vegetable oil and vanilla extract
Slowly pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry and mix until just fully combined
Spray donut pan with non-stick spray
Fill each donut cavity 3/4 full with batter*
Put in the oven to bake for 12 minutes
Remove from oven and set aside to cool for about 15 minutes
Carefully transfer donuts to a cooling rack and cool for at least 15 more minutes
Cinnamon Sugar Glaze
Add the confectioners sugar to a wide**, shallow bowl, whisk in the milk to make a thick glaze
In a small bowl whisk together the white sugar and cinnamon
Place a piece of parchment paper or aluminum foil under the cooling rack***
Dip the cooled donuts one at a time into the glaze and move around to completely coat the top and sides, hold it above the bowl for a few seconds to allow excess glaze to run off back into the bowl and then place back on the cooling rack
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the donuts to coat
Allow the glaze to set about 10 minutes before eating
Notes
*spoon it into the cavity and then use clean hands to spread it out evenly
**wide enough that the donut will fit
***this will catch any excess glaze and cinnamon sugar to make clean-up easy
