Classic Sugar Doughnut Balls Recipe

Ingredients:

 • 2 cups all-purpose flour

 • 2 tbsp sugar

 • 2 tsp baking powder

 • 1/4 tsp salt

 • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg (optional, for flavor)

 • 1 large egg

 • 3/4 cup milk

 • 2 tbsp melted butter or oil

 • 1 tsp vanilla extract

 • Oil for deep frying

 • 1/2 cup sugar (for coating)

Instructions:

 

In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.

 

In another bowl, beat egg, then add milk, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla. Mix well.

 

Gradually add wet mixture into dry ingredients. Mix until you get a thick batter (not runny, but scoopable).

 

Heat oil in a deep pan to 160–170°C (325–340°F). Keep flame on medium.

 

Scoop small portions (use a spoon or small cookie scoop) and gently drop into hot oil. Fry in batches.

 

Fry until puffed and golden brown on all sides (about 3–5 minutes). Turn occasionally for even cooking.

 

Remove and drain on paper towels. While warm, roll doughnut balls in sugar to coat.
