Directions
Sift dry ingredients, stir into liquid, roll out and cut with regular donut cutter.
Then heat some oil in a deep fryer to 390 degrees F and fry.
Makes about 17 Doughnuts with holes.
Just before serving dust with powdered or cinnamon sugar.
NOTE: These doughnuts are virtually greasless.
And if you want you can make several batches at a time and freeze.
They keep well and to me taste after a while in the freezer.
Take out as many as needed and thaw and put sugar on or eat plain.
