---

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients
   In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients
   In a separate bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla.
3. Combine
   Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until a soft dough forms. Don’t overmix.
4. Roll & Cut
   Lightly flour a surface and roll out dough to about ½-inch thick. Cut out donuts using a donut cutter or two round cutters (like a glass + bottle cap).
5. Fry
   Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Carefully drop in 2–3 donuts at a time. Fry each side for about 1–2 minutes until golden brown. Don’t overcrowd.
6. Drain & Coat
   Remove donuts and drain on paper towels. While still warm, roll in cinnamon sugar, dust with powdered sugar, or dip in glaze.
