- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the sour cream, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter should be thick and slightly lumpy.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot to 350°F.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop balls of batter into the hot oil. Fry the donuts for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
- Remove the donuts from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make the glaze. Dip the cooled donuts into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.
- Place the glazed donuts on a wire rack to set.
