  1. To make the donuts, preheat oven to 375 degrees.

  3. In a small bowl, beat together the vanilla, egg, sour cream, milk, and oil.
  4. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined. Spoon in a greased donut pan.
  5. Bake for 8 minutes or until the tops spring back when you touch them. Let the donuts cool in the pan before frosting.
