I got the recipe for these yummy traditional treats from a camp cook who has prepared them for years, to the delight of campers, shares Dawn Fagerstrom of Warren, Minnesota.
Ingredients:
2 eggs
2-1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
5 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2-1/2 cups buttermilk
oil for deep-fat frying
confectioners' sugar
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat eggs; add the sugar, sour cream, butter and vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, salt and nutmeg; add to sour cream mixture alternately with buttermilk.
2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2-in. doughnut cutter.
3. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry doughnuts, a few at a time, until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Yield: about 6 dozen.
