Ingredients
For the donuts:
- 2 tablespoons vegetable shortening (to grease the donut pans)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup whole milk
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the topping:
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
For the donuts:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease 9 wells of two 6-well donut pans with melted vegetable shortening and set aside.
- Whisk flour, cardamom, baking powder and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.
- Whisk egg and sugar together in a bowl until well combined.
- Whisk milk and melted butter into the egg mix.*
- Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
- Using a piping bag or two spoons, divide the batter into 8 or 9 wells of the donut pans. Fill each well ½ to ¾ full.
- Bake the donuts for 12 to 15 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the donuts cool completely, then unmold them.
For the topping:
- Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a shallow bowl.
- Brush the donuts with the melted butter, then dip the donuts in sugar/cinnamon mix.
- Serve the donuts fresh.
Notes
- *It's fine if the melted butter solidifies when you whisk it in. This won't cause any problems.
- Storage: These donuts taste best fresh and I do not recommend storing them.
