Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/3 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1/4 tsp salt

1/3 cup milk

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (for dipping)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini donut pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Pipe the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, until donuts spring back when touched.
Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
While still warm, dip each donut in melted butter, then roll in cinnamon sugar.
Serve immediately or store as directed.
