For the doughnuts:
2
Preheat oven to 400 F.
3
Spray a doughnut pan lightly with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
4
In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, buttermilk and egg. Set aside.
5
In a medium bowl, whisk together cake flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, orange zest and salt. Pour dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir to combine.
6
Spoon batter into the doughnut pan wells so they're about two-thirds of the way full. Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the tops of the doughnuts spring back when lightly touched. Then remove them from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for a minute or two. Then turn them out onto a cooling rack with wax paper underneath and cool completely.
7
To make the glaze: Combine all of the glaze ingredients in a shallow bowl. Then microwave them for 10 seconds at a time, stirring between, and continuing until melted.
8
Dip cooled doughnuts into the glaze (or spoon it over the doughnuts) and return the doughnuts to the cooling rack to dry.
9
Doughnuts are best served the day they are made.
