# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 - Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg in a large bowl; whisk to integrate evenly.
02 - In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and homogeneous.
03 - Gently fold wet ingredients into dry mixture until just combined; avoid overmixing to maintain tender texture.
04 - Fill a heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer with 2 inches (5 cm) of vegetable oil and preheat to 350°F (175°C).
05 - Using a small cookie scoop or two spoons, carefully drop tablespoon-sized portions of batter into the hot oil in batches.
06 - Cook each batch for 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the donut holes are golden brown and fully cooked.
07 - Remove donut holes with a slotted spoon, then drain briefly on a wire rack or paper towels to remove excess oil.
08 - While still warm, roll each donut hole generously in powdered sugar to achieve an even coating.
09 - Arrange the coated donut holes into a mountain shape on a serving platter for presentation.
10 - Offer immediately alongside chocolate sauce, raspberry jam, and vanilla custard or caramel sauce for dipping.
