quick and easy donut recipe
Servings: 8 donuts
Ingredients
Donuts
- 1 can Pillsbury Grands Biscuits
- vegetable oil for frying
Glaze
- 2 cups confectioners sugar
- 3 tbsp milk may need more if glaze is too dry
- ½ tsp light corn syrup
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp cinnamon
Instructions
Donuts
- Open can and remove biscuits
- use the top of a small glass or small round cookie cutter to cut out center of each biscuit
- put 2 inches of oil in a sauce pan and heat on medium heat
- Test temperature with a donut hole to make sure oil is hot
- fry donuts in batches. Do not over crowd. I fry 2 at a time.
- drain on paper towel and let cool
Option 1: Glaze
- Mix confectioners sugar, milk and corn syrup together. Add food color if desired.
- Dip top of donut in glaze and set aside to harden
Option 2: Cinnamon Sugar coating
- Mix cinnamon and sugar together
- dip donut or donut hole in while still warm
Notes
Have fun with this. Dip donuts in sprinkles or crushed cereal after dipping in glaze. Try crumbling crisp bacon on top after dipping in glaze. You should do this before glaze hardens.
