How to Make Sour Cream Oven Doughnuts

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) of your favorite baking mix, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 cup sour cream, and 1 large egg. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 10 times.
  4. Roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a 2.5-3 inch doughnut cutter to cut out 10-12 doughnuts.
  5. Optional: Use a toothpick to make a small hole in the center of each doughnut.
  6. Place doughnuts on a greased baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. While doughnuts are baking, prepare the cinnamon-sugar coating: In a shallow dish, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  9. Once doughnuts are baked, immediately brush them with 2 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter.
  10. Dip the warm doughnuts into the cinnamon-sugar mixture, ensuring all sides are coated.
  11. Serve warm and enjoy!
