Measure the dry ingredients in a small mixing bowl and stir lightly with a fork to combine.
Pour the dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture and beat for 1-2 minutes on low speed.

Spoon the batter into a large ziplock bag and seal. Snip off one corner and pipe the donut batter into a prepared donut pan, filling each cavity 1/2 full.

Cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then turn out. Cool completely before glazing.
