Mix yeast with warm water and a pinch of sugar; let sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.

Combine flour, sugar, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl.

Add the frothy yeast mixture, milk, eggs, and melted butter to the dry ingredients; mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Punch down the dough and divide it into equal pieces; shape into balls.

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking.

Fry the dough balls in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Serve warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with honey.
