#22 French Doughnuts

They aren't particularly doughnuty or to my thinking French. Mom had 2 different similar recipes with notes and had made them for church. They come out like muffins.

French Doughnuts

5 TBS Butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cups flour
2 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk

Greased muffin tin. Makes 12 Fill 1/2 full Bake 350* 15-20 minutes Extra notes about a dollop of jam, a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or powdered. Also she baked them in the mini pans. 1/4 tsp batter, 1/4 tsp jam, batter on top. I used a regular size tin and filled with spoonful of crushed fresh blueberries. Brunch was grilled peaches with roasted buttered pecans, blueberry French doughnuts, sausage patties, and champagne on the back very sunny porch.
