Ingredients for the Donuts

  • cup all purpose flour or plain flour
  • teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 10 tablespoon unsalted butter softened at room temperature
  • 1 cup superfine granulated sugar or caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup eggnog you can use some of my easy homemade eggnog or store bought in this recipe

Ingredients for the Glaze

  • ½ cup powdered sugar or icing sugar
  • eggnog just like in the donuts, you can either use homemade eggnog or store bought
  • ground nutmeg

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175C/165C Fan) and prepare donut moulds.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar.
  • Add the eggs to the butter and sugar, one at a time, beating until incorporated. Add the vanilla. Then add the flour mixture slowly in a few additions.
  • Once dry ingredients are incorporated, pour the eggnog in, mixing continuously until the batter is well incorporated.
  • For filling the donut moulds, add the batter to a piping bag (or plastic bag) and fill around the moulds, until these are about ¾ full.
  • Bake in the centre of the oven for about 20 minutes, rotating halfway through. Once done, remove from the oven and leave to cool in the pan for a few minutes before carefully unforming and cooling completely on a wire rack.
  • For the glaze, place the icing sugar in a bowl and slowly whisk in eggnog, add slowly bit by bit until it reaches your desired consistency (a tablespoon or two). Dip the donuts into the glaze and top with a sprinkle of ground nutmeg.
