This recipe was extracted from The household cook book (1902) by Smiley, James B[ethuel],, page 260. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.
PLAIN DOUGHNUTS — Use 1 cup new milk, 1 level teaspoon of salt, 1 heaping teaspoon of baking powder sifted into 2 cups of flour; mix all together, and add a little more flour if needed, but the cakes are better to be made quite soft. Do not mold the dough but place it on the molding^board, flatten the dough down with the hands until it is about an inch thick, cut into shape and fry in hot fat. Powdered sugar can be dredged over them when served, if liked.
Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
