How to Make Baked Cake Donuts Doughnuts

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease a 12-hole donut pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk, 2 large eggs, and ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill each prepared donut cup about ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 7-9 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once cool, drizzle with your favorite glaze or toss in melted butter and cinnamon sugar.
