Old Fasion Doughnuts (Sour Cream)

This recipe came from The Messy Baker

• 2 1/4 cups cake / soft-wheat flour, plus more for rolling and cutting
• 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon iodized salt
• 3/4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons shortening / vegetable lard, trans-fat-free preferred
• 2 large egg yolks (I used the whole egg)
• 2/3 cups sour cream
• canola oil for frying

Mix it all together well (should be kind of sticky) and refrigerate for 30 mins.  Roll out the dough on a floured surface cut doughnuts and fry in oil at about 325 degrees F. Makes about a dozen or so.

After cooled, glaze doughnuts, wait for it to harden and enjoy.  I made these at night and thought they tasted best the next morning.  They didn't make it to lunch. 

Just fried
