Easy Canned Biscuit Donuts
Description
This recipe uses canned biscuit dough to simplify donut making. The dough is shaped by cutting out centers to form rings and holes. It is then fried in vegetable oil heated to medium-high until both sides are golden brown and cooked through. After frying, the donuts and holes are coated generously with a cinnamon sugar blend for a sweet finish.
The donuts have a tender, soft interior from the biscuit dough and a light crispness on the outside from frying. The cinnamon sugar adds a classic warm spice flavor that complements the mild dough. Cooking oil depth is shallow, allowing quick cooking while keeping the dough fully fried without absorbing excess grease.
The recipe calls for serving the donuts warm, which enhances their texture and the melting cinnamon sugar coating. They can be enjoyed as a quick homemade treat or snack without the complexity of traditional donut dough preparation and proofing.
Ingredients
- 1 biscuit dough or your preference, ten count can, Texas style
- 1 Cup sugar
- 1½ Tablespoon cinnamon
- vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Pour oil into skillet to the depth of a little less than ½ an inch and heat on medium to medium high for about five minutes. In a bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar.
- Using a small round cookie cutter, cut the center out of each biscuit. Drop dough into hot oil, watching carefully and turning when golden. Once doughnuts are golden on both sides, remove to paper towel lined plate. Repeat until all dough is cooked, including doughnut holes.
- Press both sides into cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve warm.
