Ingredients
- Flour: 500 grams
- Sugar: three quarters of a cup
- Baking soda: half a teaspoon
- Baking powder: 2 teaspoons
- Salt: a teaspoon
- Cinnamon: 1 teaspoon (ground)
- Nutmeg: half a teaspoon (ground)
- Milk: three quarters of a cup (butter milk)
- Butter: ¼ cup (melted)
- Eggs: 2 tablets

How to prepare
- In a deep bowl, put 1 inch (2.5 cm) of vegetable oil and prepare a wire rack with a paper towel on it.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices and set aside.
- In another large bowl, mix the melted butter, milk and eggs.
- Using a whisk, gradually mix the dry ingredients until a sticky dough forms.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface, bring the dough together, then use the palm of your hand to press the dough into a rectangle approximately 12 inches by 1/2 inch thick.
- Before cutting the dough, heat the oil over medium-low heat (this should take 5-7 minutes).
- While the oil is heating, cut donuts using a 3-inch round cookie cutter and 1-inch cookie cutter, making donut holes in the middle.
- Transfer the cut donuts to a tray.
- In a frying pan over high heat, carefully fry the donuts and allow the donuts to fry for 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
- Once it puffs up and turns golden brown on both sides, carefully remove it from the oil.
- Leave the donuts to cool on a wire rack.
