Thanks! I should be able to convert the grams to ounces. I assume the 160 isn't Fahrenheit?

Are you looking for a cake doughnut or a yeast doughnut?

Here is a recipe for baked cake doughnuts (usually the cake types are the ones baked in doughnut pans) from Cooks' Illustrated.

Baked Cake Doughnuts (Cooks' Illustrated): makes 12 large or 24 medium

Batter:
2 3/4 c all-purpose flour (spooned in to the cup, then leveled off)
1/4 c sugar
1/4 c cornstarch
1 Tbs baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 c milk or non-dairy milk
1/2 c melted butter or parve margarine
2 eggs
1 egg yolk

1. Adjust an oven rack to the middle level. Preheat the oven to 400 F. Grease your doughnut pan or a muffin pan.
2. Whisk together flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in a large bowl.
3. Whisk together melted butter, milk, eggs, and yolk in a medium bowl.
4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined (lumps are okay- do not overmix to prevent them being tough).
5. Spoon the batter into the pan. Bake 19-22 minutes (for large muffin pans) or 10-15 minutes for smaller pans, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. They will be very lightly brown. Be careful not to overbake them. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes.

While the doughnuts are baking, make the coating:
about 1/4 cup melted butter or parve margarine
1/3 c granulated sugar
2 tsp cinnamon or 1/2 tsp vanilla

6. Melt the butter in a small bowl. Stir in the vanilla if using.
7. Stir together the sugar and cinnamon (if using) in a separate small bowl.
8. After the doughnuts are baked and cooled for 5 minutes, brush each doughnut with melted butter, then roll in the sugar.
