Ingredients

8 servings

For the donuts

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
½ tsp ground cinnamon
¼ cup granulated sugar
½ cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract

For the cinnamon sugar coating

2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
½ cup granulated sugar
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

1
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and granulated sugar until evenly combined.
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until just combined — the batter will be thick and slightly sticky; stop as soon as no dry streaks remain.
