 Categories: Doughnuts
      Yield: 30 Servings
 
      3 c  Peanut oil; for frying
      4 c  All-purpose flour
    3/4 c  Sugar
      4 ts Baking powder
      1 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/2 ts Ground nutmeg

    3/4 c  Sugar
      2 ts Ground cinnamon
 
     1. Heat oil in a deep-fat fryer or deep heavy skillet. Time
  heating so it will be ready when you are prepared to begin frying
  doughnuts. Use Canola oil if you prefer, but peanut oil has a higher
  smoking point and is a good choice for frying.
     2. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt,
  cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cut in margarine using a pastry blender or two
  knives.
     3. Make a well in center of mix and add mashed bananas and eggs.
  Mix well. You can do this with a wooden spoon, or since dough will be
  very stiff you may want to use your hands to mix it well.
     4. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and roll to 1/2-inch
  thick. Cut with a 2-1/2 inch doughnut cutter that you dip in flour as
  needed.
     5. Deep-fry, a few at a time, until golden brown. Drain on brown
  paper bags. Fry the doughnut "holes" also.
     6. Combine sugar and cinnamon in a paper bag or place on a shallow
  plate. Coat warm doughnuts with this mixture.
  
  Yield: about 22 doughnuts and 22 centers.
