Perfectly Mini Doughnuts
👩🍳 How to Make Them
1️⃣ Mix the Batter
- In one bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
 - In another, combine egg, milk, vanilla, and melted butter.
 - Pour wet into dry and stir gently until smooth—no overmixing!
 
2️⃣ Heat Oil
- Fill a deep pan with oil (at least 2 inches deep).
 - Heat to 350°F (175°C)—use a thermometer for accuracy.
 
- Using a teaspoon or mini scoop, drop small batter portions into the hot oil.
 - Fry in batches 2–3 minutes per side, until puffed and golden.
 
4️⃣ Drain & Sugar-Coat
- Transfer to paper towels to blot excess oil.
 - While warm, roll in sugar until fully coated.
 
🍴 Serving Ideas
- Serve with tea, coffee, or hot chocolate
 - Add dipping sauces: chocolate, caramel, berry
 - Try a dusting of cinnamon sugar or drizzle with glaze
 
💡 Tips for Doughnut Perfection
- Keep oil at steady temp—too hot = burned outsides, raw centers
 - Use a cookie scoop for even shapes
 - Add a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon for bakery-style flair
