Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar for glaze
  • 2–4 tablespoons maple syrup for glaze
  • 1–2 tablespoons milk for glaze

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. Set aside.
  2. In another large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until evenly mixed.
  3. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix—the batter should remain slightly lumpy.
  4. Gently fold in 1/4 cup of vegetable oil into the batter until incorporated.
  5. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a candy thermometer to keep an eye on the temperature.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of batter (about 2 tablespoons each) into the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook each side for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Once fried, remove the donut fries from oil and place them on a wire rack to drain any excess oil.
  8. While still warm, lightly dust the donut fries with powdered sugar if desired.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk until smooth. Adjust consistency as needed—aim for pourable but not too runny.
  10. Drizzle the maple glaze over warm donut fries before serving. Enjoy immediately while they are fresh!
