Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated biscuits
- oil for frying
- 1/3 cup sugar
Instructions
- Add enough oil to a deep fryer or large, deep heavy pot so that it is a couple of inches deep.
- Heat the oil to 350 degrees.
- Place 2 to 3 biscuits in the oil and allow them to lightly brown on one side, about 90 seconds. Be sure to fry only a couple at a time or the oil may cool too much and the donuts will absorb too much oil.
- Turn the biscuits over to brown on the other side.
- When the donuts are golden brown on both sides, transfer them to a wire rack or paper towels to drain for 15 seconds.
- Pour sugar into a small bowl.
- Dredge the warm donuts in the sugar.
Notes
- Oil temperature is key: Maintain the oil at 350°F. If it's too hot, the outside will burn before the inside cooks; if it's too cool, the donuts will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Fry in small batches to maintain oil temperature and give the donuts room to float.
- Choose the right biscuits: Use the least expensive, regular (not flaky layers) canned biscuits for the most authentic texture.
- Sugar while hot: Roll the donuts in sugar while they're still warm so the coating sticks better.
