Easy Homemade Buttermilk Old Fashioned Doughnuts

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs, plus 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ to ½ tsp nutmeg (I like a stronger nutmeg flavor, which is essential to homemade doughnuts, so I use ½ tsp. Use ¼ tsp if you prefer a lighter flavor)

  • ¾ cup buttermilk
