- These do not spread much; they rise.
- Preheat oven to 450F.
- Let the doughnuts rest and rise for 20 min uncovered.
- Bake about 10 min or possibly a little longer, till they have a touch of golden.
- Remove from the oven.
- Have ready the melted butter and a brush.
- On a sheet of wax paper, spread the cinnamon sugar.
- Brush each doughnut and doughnut hole with butter and roll in the cinnamon sugar.
