Pillsbury Biscuit Dough Fried Doughnuts image

One day, a friend of mine showed me how he did it growing up in Oahu: take a pack of the Pillsbury biscuits and fry them, then toss them in sugar.

Yield Makes 8 doughnuts

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons roasted and crushed sesame seeds
1 tube Pillsbury original biscuit dough
4 cups Crisco shortening

Steps:

  • Mix the sugar, cinnamon, and sesame seeds in a medium-size bowl.
  • Pop open the tube of dough and pull apart the biscuits-they come preportioned, so this will be easy. In a big, heavy pot, heat the shortening over high heat; you'll know it's ready when a tiny piece of biscuit dough sizzles when added to the oil. Fry the biscuit dough until each piece becomes puffy and brown on all sides, about 2 minutes. Flip the pieces over and fry them for 2 minutes more.
  • Pull out the doughnuts and rest them on paper towels for a minute or two, then toss them immediately in the sugar mixture.
  • Repeat. Eat. Get bloated.
