2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 eggs
3/4 c. buttermilk

Heat oil in a fryer. Measure 1 1/2 cups flour and remaining ingredients into large mixer bowl. Blend with mixer on low speed, scraping bowl. Beat with mixer on medium speed. Stir in remaining flour. Turn dough onto well floured cloth covered board. Roll around lightly to coat with flour. Roll dough gently to 3/8" thick. Cut with floured doughnut cutter. With wide spatula, slide doughnuts into hot fat. Turn doughnuts as they rise to the surface. Fry until golden brown (2 to 3 minutes). Carefully remove from fat. Drain. (Do not prick the surface.)
