1 ½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp fine salt
½ tsp ground nutmeg
¾ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
¾ cup buttermilk
Ingredient note
Plain buttermilk has no fiber, so it leaves very little residue. Choose a product without added fruit, seeds, or fiber. If you prefer to always avoid buttermilk, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted and cooled
Ingredient note
Butter is almost all fat and has no fiber, so the small amount here (about 3/4 teaspoon per serving) leaves very little residue. If you prefer to always avoid butter, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
1 tsp vanilla extract

For frying

2 qt vegetable oil, for frying

For the glaze

2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
¼ cup whole milk
Ingredient note
Plain whole milk has no fiber, so it leaves very little residue. Choose a product without added fruit, seeds, or fiber. If you prefer to always avoid whole milk, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 pinch fine salt

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl until evenly combined. Set aside.
