  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 6 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Milk, room temperature
For the Coating:
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease 2 doughnut pans.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir to combine and set aside.
  3. In a larger bowl, mix together the melted butter, oil, both sugars, egg, vanilla extract, and milk together. Stir until well-combined.
  4. Pour in the flour mixture and mix until just combined. It is okay if there are a few lumps in the batter.

  7. Pour your cinnamon sugar mixture into a gallon bag and add the freshly baked doughnuts. Shake to coat. You may need to do this in batches, but work quickly as the doughnuts should still be very warm for the sugar to adhere.
