Sugared Pillsbury Biscuits (Cheater Donuts)
Description
The recipe uses pre-made buttermilk biscuit dough cut from the tube, which is heated in neutral cooking oil until golden on both sides. This frying process puffs the dough, cooking it through and creating a slightly crisp exterior. Immediately after frying, the hot biscuits are sprinkled with sugar, giving a sweet coating like traditional donuts.
These homemade cheater donuts have a tender, slightly airy interior from the biscuit dough, paired with a sugary crust from the dusting. The result is a fast and accessible fried dough dessert or snack without the need for yeast rising or complex dough-making steps.
Serving them fresh and hot is best to enjoy the contrasting textures and fully melted butter flavor inherent in the biscuit dough.
Ingredients
- 1 tube Biscuits buttermilk flavor, contains 10 doughs, Pillsbury brand
- sugar
- neutral cooking oil for deep frying, generic cooking oil
Instructions
- Separate each dough piece from the tube and drop them into a frying pan (with enough heated oil) or a deep fryer. Turn them over and fry evenly until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer them out, dust with sugar, and serve immediately.
