Sunday Morning Doughnuts
2 cups flour
2 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 large egg
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup honey
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well (clean hands work great for the job).
Turn onto a floured board and knead for a few minutes. Let rest.
Roll out to about 1/2" thick and cut out with a doughnut cutter.
Heat about 4" oil (vegetable oil works fine, we use lard) to 360°F
Fry 3 or 4 doughnuts at a time, turning when one side is browned - fry until both sides are nicely browned.
Drain on paper towels or on a paper bag. Makes about one dozen doughnuts.
