I should clarify. When I say "cold" . . . I don't mean "cold" . . . I mean positively, ridiculously, in-the-words-of-the-weather-guy, STUPID cold. Granted, I live in Minnesota, so "cold" is nothing new during our long, dark winter, but this year is different. In fact, Governor Mark Dayton cancelled all public schools today . . . it's that cold. I woke up to a temp of something like -22 (notice the negative in front of that number) and windchills of -46. Silly, but whatever, we've got this.
In honor of the cold day at home, my boys and I aren't going anywhere. Unfortunately the hubs headed out this morning, but such is life. Anyway, I pinned this yesterday . . .

. . . so today we thought we'd give it a try. {THANK YOU CAMILLESTYLES.COM and JESS SIMPSON!}
I followed the recipe almost exactly, except I didn't have nutmeg, so I subbed a little cinnamon instead and used skim milk because that is what I had on hand. I also don't have a donut pan (is this something people really find necessary?), so I baked them in a muffin tin. PERFECTION!
Anyway . . . BEHOLD!
It actually made 9, but I needed to sample one for the good of the people. They are a fabulous treat! Not overly sweet (you can lay off on the cinnamon and sugar topping too), definitely not health food, but made with real ingredients, so better than plenty of the sweet breakfast alternatives. Super fast and easy to make too!
