Great Grammie Morton's Dougnuts

By mortonheat

I believe that this was my great grammie (my father's father's mother). Uncle Jon does a great job with these as well.

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 3 tablespoons melted Crisco
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup milk
• 2 1/2 cups flour
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

Beat eggs well. Add milk and shortening. Mix. Mix dry ingredients together and add to wet. Mix just enough to mix through. Separate. Roll out to 1/4" on a floured board. Fry in medium hot fat. Turn over once. Roll in cinnamon/sugar or powdered sugar.
