List of Ingredients
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons shortening, melted
3 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 cups self rising flour (2 1/2 to 3)
oil for frying
2 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk Recipe
Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Add buttermilk, shortening, sugar and 1 1/2 cup flour; mix well. Add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead several times. Roll dough to 1/2 inch thick and cut with a 2 1/2 inch doughnut cutter. Place doughnuts on lightly floured surface, cover and let rise 45 minutes or until double in bulk. Heat 2-3 inches of oil to 375 ¼F. Drop in 4 or 5 doughnuts at a time. Cook about 2 minutes or until lightly golden in color, turning once. Drain well on paper towels. Combine powdered sugar with milk, stir until smooth. Dip each doughnut in glaze while still warm; allow excess glaze to drip off. Cool on wire rack or serve warm. Yields about 14 doughnuts.
