Simple Doughnuts
1 can biscuit dough (you can increase/decrease this recipe as desired)
oil for frying
any desired toppings
- In a small pan, heat about 1/2 an inch of oil for frying.
- Removing biscuits from the can, take each one and cut out a 1 inch circle from the center (unless you’d like round doughnuts for filling.
- When the oil is hot, add the donuts one by one, cooking only 2-3 at a time. (If you put a doughnut in the oil and it does not start bubbling, the oil is NOT hot enough. Remove the dough and wait a little while longer).
- Fry for 2-3 minutes on the first side, then flip and fry another 2-3 minutes. Remove from the oil and set on a wire rack or paper towels. Top them quickly and enjoy!
Doughnut topping ideas:
- Mix together 1/4 cup sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon and roll the doughnuts in this mixture for cinnamon sugar doughnuts.
- Mix 1 cup powdered sugar and 2 tbsp milk for a classic glazed doughnut.
- Roll in powdered sugar.
