Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar and melted butter until well combined.
  2. Add the whole eggs, yolk and vanilla, and beat until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the sour cream and buttermilk and mix well.
  4. Add the cake flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg and mix until combined, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  5. Flour a sheet of parchment paper and put the chilled dough on it. Dust the dough well with flour and roll it out to 1/2 inch thickness, adding extra flour as needed since the dough is soft.
  6. Cut the dough into 3 x 2 x 1/2 inch pieces, or divide into 16 pieces. Press a bench scraper gently down the centre of each piece to make a light indentation. Brush off excess flour.
  7. Carefully place 2 to 3 donuts at a time in hot oil over medium heat. Fry for 2 minutes per side or until golden, then flip again and fry for 30 seconds. Drain on paper towel and let cool.
  8. Mix all the glaze ingredients until smooth.
  9. Dip each warm donut in the glaze, place on a wire rack and let cool for a few minutes.
