1.
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, slowly mix in water, oil, eggs and vanilla. Once all ingredients are incorporated, slowly increase mixer to medium-high speed; mix until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.

For glaze, in a small bowl, mix confectioners' sugar, water, vanilla and salt until smooth. Dip tops of warm doughnuts into glaze, allowing excess to drip off. Place on wire rack; let stand until set.
