1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/3 c. milk

Add flour mixture and stir with wooden spoon until smooth. Cover dough, chill 2 hours (dough will remain slightly sticky).
2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut dough with a floured 2 1/2 inch round cutter use a 1 1/4 inch futter to cut the hole for the doughnut. (You can also use a standard doughnut cutter.)

4. Shake warm (and still slightly wet) doughnuts in a bag with Cinnamon-Sugar or powdered sugar. Serve warm (or reheat each doughnut 8-10 seconds in microwave on high)
