03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
04 - Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, taking care not to overmix.
05 - Spoon or pipe the batter evenly into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
