Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Additional granulated sugar (for coating)
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted (for coating)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a doughnut pan with non-stick spray or melted butter.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 5

Spoon or pipe the batter evenly into the prepared doughnut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.

Step 6

Bake the doughnuts in the preheated oven for 9-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The doughnuts should be lightly golden.

Step 7

Remove the pan from the oven and let the doughnuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly.

Step 8

While the doughnuts are still warm, brush each one lightly with melted butter and then roll them in granulated sugar until fully coated.

Step 9

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
