Baked Doughnuts

I spent many afternoons at my bakery job as a teenager frying doughnuts.  I decorated more raised doughnuts than you can count.  I LOVE doughnuts.  This is an interesting spin on doughnuts that you bake that don't raise.    If you skip the whole you might be able to fill them like bismarks.

1 C. white sugar
2 tsp. baking  powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3 C. all purpose flour
1 C. buttermilk
3 eggs
1 tbsp. honey
1/2 C. butter, melted

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Lightly grease a baking sheet or doughnut baking pan.

In a medium bowl, mix sugar, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, and flour.  Mix buttermilk, eggs, honey, and butter in separate medium bowl, and stir into the dry ingredients.  Spoon the mixture onto the prepared in doughnut shapes.

Bake 12 minutes in the preheated oven until golden brown.
