- In the meantime, mix the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg (optional) together in a small bowl you can dip the donut holes into.
- When the donut holes are done, spray or brush them with a little olive oil or avocado oil and dip into the sugar cinnamon mixture. Do this one at a time so the oil doesn’t absorb into the donut holes.
