We didn't care for these at all. The nutmeg was overpowering, a flavor I've never had in doughnuts before. I won't be making these again.

I gave 5 stars even though I didn't really use this recipe... I was JUST about to post a recipe SO similar to this that I decided to just tell you the differences in my version and I also uploaded the photo from my version as well. The ingredient variances were: My recipe called for 1/3 c. shortening, 1 and 1/2 c. flour, 1 and 1/2 tsp. baking powder, 1/4 tsp. nutmeg...(no nuts at all in mine and topping included cinnamon/granulated sugar mixture.) Oven temp 350 degrees F. Oh, and it made exactly 8 doughnuts in a standard size muffin tin. One more hint...If you're using a 12 cup muffin tin and making only one batch, pour about 2 TBS of water in the tins that don't have batter in them. I believe that helped with even baking and moisture. Just the ingredient amounts were changed. Everything else was the same. I can say that there was nothing dry about these yummy doughnuts with the ingredients I used. Hope it helps.

My kids thought these were great, very easy to make. Followed directions exactly except for added 1t. vanilla instead of nutmeg and omitted the nuts. I baked them in mini muffin tins for about 11 min. and frosted with a choc. ganache. Thank you for the recipe
