Ingredients

How to make it

  • Scald milk and allow to cool to lukewarm.
  • Add yeast and stir.
  • In a large bowl, beat sugar and butter until fluffy.
  • Add eggs, salt, vanilla, Rum/Vodka, orange zest and nutmeg.
  • Add flour and yeast-milk mixture gradually, beating well.
  • Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
  • Punch down and let rise again.
  • Roll out dough, on a floured surface, 3/4 inches thick.
  • Cut out 1-1/2 inch circles.
  • Options: Either cut into circles and deep fry or top half of a circle with 1 tsp. jam, cover with the remaining circle and seal the edges. I prefer to deep fry circles of dough and after they are done, allow to cool then pipe the jam into the centre of a cooked doughnut.
  • Heat oil to 375°F.
  • Fry, turning once, to a medium golden brown.
  • Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.
  • This recipe can make 24 doughnuts, more or less.
