Ingredients
  

  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 cups all purpose flour or whole wheat pastry flour

For the glaze:

  • 2 cups confectioners sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F and lightly grease your donut pans.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, butter, sugar, vanilla extract and buttermilk. Sprinkle in the salt and nutmeg. Add the baking powder and baking soda and slowly stir in the flour until everything is combined and you have a thick batter.
  • Place batter in a piping bag and pipe into the donut pan, filling each cavity 3/4 of the way full. Bake for 12 minutes or until the toothpick inserted into the middle of a donut comes out clean. Transfer to a cooling rack.
  • Mix the glaze ingredients in a bowl. The mixture should be thin enough to run a bit but not too runny. You are looking for the consistency of honey. Add a little more milk or sugar to reach the desired consistency.
  • Carefully dip one side of the donuts in the glaze. The glaze should coat half of the donut when you do this. Flip back over and let them cool on a cooling rack with a tray underneath to catch any drips from the glaze.
