Crack 2 eggs into a bowl.

Add 1 cup of buttermilk to the bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract.

Add a pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon of fresh nutmeg to the mixture.

Whisk the ingredients together until the egg is completely broken up.

Add 1 cup of caster sugar to the mixture and beat it together.

Sift plain flour and baking powder into the bowl and mix until it forms a dough.

Sprinkle nonstick parchment paper with flour and place the dough on it.

Sprinkle more flour on top of the dough to prevent sticking.

Roll out the dough to a uniform thickness.

Use a cookie cutter to cut out donut shapes from the dough.

Use a smaller cutter or a knife to create holes in the center of the donuts.

Heat vegetable oil in a pot for about 20 minutes on low until it reaches 190°C (380°F).

Carefully ease the donuts into the hot oil without overcrowding them.

Fry the donuts for about 1 to 2 minutes until they are nice and brown on both sides, flipping them halfway through.

Remove the cooked donuts from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Prepare a cinnamon coating by mixing 2 spoons of caster sugar with 1 spoon of cinnamon.

For a glaze, mix icing sugar with hot tap water to create a thin paste.

Dip the donuts in the cinnamon mixture or glaze them with the icing sugar mixture and place them on a plate.
