Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup jam
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1 cup flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder. In a small bowl, beat the 1 egg with the 0.5 cup milk until combined.

  2. 2

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined; the batter should be slightly lumpy. Do not overmix.

  3. 3

    Heat a lightly oiled skillet or griddle over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of batter (about 1 tablespoon each) to form small donut holes, cooking in batches without crowding.

  4. 4

    Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the bottoms are golden, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until the other side is golden and cooked through, about 1-2 minutes more.

  5. 5

    While still warm, roll each donut hole in the 0.25 cup powdered sugar. Make a small slit in each and fill with the 0.25 cup jam. Serve immediately.
