Donuts!!

(Originally published October, 2008.)

I got this idea/recipe from Sarah’s blog (In the Midst of It) and in case you don’t read her, I’m going to pass it along. Because this is a recipe you want, trust me.

My sisters came over last night to do their laundry and so we tried these out and watched a movie. UnBELIEVEably quick and easy. And GOOOOOOD.

Homemade Donuts: Pop open a can of refrigerated biscuits. Poke a hole in the center of each biscuit (I used my Pampered Chef apple corer):

And then fry the donuts (and holes) in a few inches of oil (I use canola):

Flip over once (this takes less than a minute, make sure you don’t go far!):

Drain on paper towels:

Roll in cinnamon & sugar:

Perfect for a Saturday morning or a Sunday evening at home. Best served still warm.

(You could also glaze them with a powdered-sugar glaze or frost them with chocolate icing.)

Yum! This looks delicious and so simple! You have perfect timing too. I recently brought my deep fryer out of hibernation. Mahalo for passing this along.

You can also just sprinkle powdered sugar on them, a la the “Cafe du Monde beignet”. Delicious!! We eat this all the time!

I am SO going out to buy those biscuit-type-things ASAP. It feels like a donut day today.

How I wish I hadn’t decided to check your blog right before bed tonight. I will dream of donuts. And then tomorrow I will get up and go to the grocery store for some canned biscuits.

OH! these brought back such memories – my mom used to make them all the time when I was growing up! I totally forgot about them – thanks for the reminder!! :-)
