Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs

  • 1 tsp (baking) soda
  • flour - enough to make a soft dough
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions
 

  • Mix eggs, sugar and butter; add sour milk or buttermilk with soda dissolved. Then stir in flour with baking powder added.

  • Have lard boiling when you drop in the doughnuts. A slice of raw potato in the lard will prevent the lard taste.
