Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 can refrigerated biscuits
oil (for frying)
1/3 cup sugar

Steps:

  • 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.
