How to Make Alice S Doughnuts

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
4. Heat your oil to 375°F (190°C) in a large pot or deep fryer.
5. Carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.
6. Fry the doughnuts for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
8. While the doughnuts are still warm, roll them in your choice of coating – cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, or a glaze (recipe ideas can be found online).
9. Allow the doughnuts to cool slightly before serving and enjoying!
