Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray 2 doughnut pans well.
Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract and vanilla bean seeds.
Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined.
Spoon the batter into the baking pans, filling each one to just full.
Bake for 15 – 17 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then tap the doughnuts out onto a cooling rack.
For the topping, place the melted butter in a medium sized bowl, and 2 – 3 cups powdered sugar in a gallon sized zip lock bag.
Dip each doughnut first in the butter, then one at a time, place them in the zip lock bag. Give a gentle but thorough shake, until the doughnut is completely powdered.
Enjoy!
