Salt 1/2 tsp
Nutmeg 1/4 tsp
Milk 1 cup

Directions

Pour enough vegetable oil into a large heavy saucepan or deep-fat fryer to measure 2 inches. Preheat the oil to 365 degrees F.

Combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl and mix well.

Whisk milk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla extract in a small bowl until blended. Add milk mixture to flour mixture and mix well.
