Ingredients

  • 1 tube Pillsbury Grands Flaky Biscuits
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • Canola Vegetable or Peanut oil for frying

Instructions

  • Add 2 inches of oil to a deep pan over medium high heat. Alternatively you can heat your oil in an electric fondue pot or deep fryer at 375°F.
  • Meanwhile, open the tube of biscuits and cut each biscuit into four equal pieces.
  • Add the cinnamon and sugar to a small bowl and stir until well combined.
  • Check the oil to see if it is ready by dipping a wooden spoon in the oil. If it slowly bubbles around the spoon, the oil is ready. If it is an eruption of rapid bubbles, the oil is too hot.
  • When the oil is ready, add the donut holes in batches of 6-8, being sure not to overcrowd the oil.

  • Cook until they turn golden brown on one side. Flip and cook until both sides are golden brown. This will take 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove the cooked donut holes to a paper towel lined plate. Dab off excess oil and immediately toss in cinnamon sugar to coat well.
  • Repeat until all donut holes are cooked. Serve immediately!

Notes

While you can store the donut holes up to 2 days in an airtight container, they are best served warm. The texture changes significantly after they cool completely off.
