This easy donut recipe is made from ingredients you probably already have. My 3-year-old loves these donuts because he can have them whenever he wants since there's hardly any waiting time. Use any topping you want — our favorite is powdered sugar!

Ingredients

0.38 cups milk
2 tablespoons white vinegar
0.5 cups white sugar
2 tablespoons shortening
1 large egg
0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
0.5 teaspoons baking soda
0.25 teaspoons salt
1 quart oil for deep frying
0.5 cups confectioners' sugar for dusting

2

Stir together milk and vinegar; let stand for a few minutes until thick.
3

Cream together sugar and shortening in a mixing bowl until smooth.
