Buttermilk Doughnuts Recipe

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Whisk buttermilk white sugar and eggs together in a bowl. Mix flour baking soda baking powder salt nutmeg and cinnamon together in another bowl. Stir buttermilk mixture into flour mixture until combined; add butter and knead until a soft dough forms.

Turn out dough onto a lightly floured work surface and roll to 1/4-inch thick. Cut dough into doughnut shapes using a 2 1/2-inch doughnut cutter.

Beat confectioners' sugar margarine and vanilla extract together in a bowl until smooth. Gradually add milk stirring constantly until desired glaze-consistency is reached.

Working in batches cook doughnuts in hot oil until golden brown about 1 minute per side. Transfer cooked doughnuts to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Dip hot doughnuts into glaze to coat.
