Cake Doughnuts Vegetable oil 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup sugar 3 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 2 tablespoons shortening 2 eggs 3/4 cup milk
Heat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a deep-fat fryer or heavy kettle to 375 degrees. Beat 11/2 cups of the flour and the remaining ingredients in a large mixer bowl on low speed, scraping the bowl constantly for 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally, for 2 minutes. Stir in remaining flour. Turn dough onto well-floured, cloth-covered board. Roll around lightly to coat with flour. Roll gently to 3/8-inch thick. Cut with floured doughnut cutter. Slide doughnuts into hot oil with wide spatula. Turn doughnuts as they rise to the surface. Fry until golden brown, 1 to 11/2 minutes on each side. Remove from oil. Do not prick doughnuts. Drain on paper towels. Makes 2 dozen doughnuts.
