Easy Gluten Free Doughnuts

1 egg
1 cup buttermilk
2 tbsp butter, melted
2.5 cups cake flour mix
0.5 cups sugar
0.5 tsp nutmeg
0.5 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
0.5 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp xanthan gum

1. Beat the egg, buttermilk, and butter together with a whisk
2. Combine dry ingredients, then slowly add to the wet ingredients stirring by hand
3. Knead dough with your hands a few times to ensure all ingredients are combined
4. Let dough rest for 15-30 minutes (cover bowl with plastic wrap)
5. sprinkle a clean surface with extra flour mix and roll out the dough. Cut out circles using a juice glass and cut holes out of those circles using a shot glass. Alternatively roll dough into small balls to for doughnut holes. Minimize the number of times you reknead and roll out dough as working with the dough toughens it.
6. Fry in vegetable or canola oil at 375F for 3-5 minutes, until the outsides are brown and the inside is cooked through.
7. Glaze with desired icing or roll in a sugar/cinnamon mixture to finish and serve warm.
