Sour Cream Baked Doughnuts with Maple Glaze

INGREDIENTS:

2 c. flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1 c. sour cream

1 c. sugar (plus a bit more for coating the doughnuts)

1/2 c. canola oil

1 tsp.vanilla

2 eggs

GLAZE:

3 1/2 - 4 c. powdered sugar

2 tsp corn syrup

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp vanilla

1 tsp maple extract

5-6 Tbsp hot water

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt and nutmeg.

2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients.

3. Combine the two sets of ingredients and mix together until fully blended.

4. Fill each cavity in a greased doughnut pan about 2/3 full. (I use a zip lock bag with the corner snipped off to do this.  Sort of like piping cake icing -- much neater.)

5. Bake doughnuts at 350º for about 15 minutes (depending on your oven.)

6. Allow the doughnuts to cool for 1-2 minutes and then toss them in additional sugar.

7. Prepare the glaze:  Whisk together all the glaze ingredients and either drizzle over doughnuts and tip top half of doughnut into the glaze.  (Makes about 15 doughnuts.)
