Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Donut Dough
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract together until smooth.
Step 2: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The dough will be slightly sticky, but not too wet.
Step 3: Roll Out the Dough
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thick. Use a donut cutter or two round cookie cutters (one larger for the outer ring and one smaller for the center hole) to cut out your donuts.
Step 4: Fry the Donuts
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to about 350°F (175°C). Carefully drop the donut shapes into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Step 5: Coat with Sugar
Once the donuts are fried, remove them from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain. While they’re still warm, roll them in granulated sugar to coat them evenly.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Let the donuts cool slightly and serve immediately for the best taste. Enjoy your warm, fluffy homemade sugar donuts!
