I don't need to waste precious ingredients, so it's a good practice to find reader reviews before I try any recipes out in my kitchen.
Here is my reader review and revision for the improvised McKenzie Buttermilk Drop donuts recipe.
I am visiting my daughter in Washington and wanted to make fresh buttermilk donut drops for breakfast, so I located a recipe for McKenzies Bakery Buttermilk Drops on the net.
McKenzies Bakery was a New Orleans favorite and the Buttermilk Drops were unbelievably delish! The bakery is now closed, so if I want Drops, I have to make them!
I adapted a recipe I found online a bit and found it to be satisfactory.
I recommend you use a cooking thermometer to keep the oil temp. at 350 degrees.
They are really good!
Buttermilk Drop Donuts
1 cup flour
4 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
Whisk these dry ingredients together in a bowl.
Add the following to the dry ingredients and stir until moistened throughout batter.
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 tbsp. melted butter
1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk
Drop by spoonfull into 350 oil. Cook until golden. Remove and drain on papertowels. Glaze with powder sugar glaze or dust with cinnamon sugar. I enjoy these just plain, too!

The Buttermilk Drop Bakery in Treme uses the old McKenzie's recipe, and they're great!
