Grands Jr. Refrigerated Biscuits, buttermilk, 8 count
1 1/2cupsgranulated sugar, in a bowl
vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
Heat the oil at medium heat until it gets very hot.
Open the can of biscuits and separate them out on a plate. (Optional: use a round cookie cutter to cut out center.)
Fry biscuits in batches about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Remove with slotted spoon and allow to sit on paper towels to drain for about a minute or two.
Place one at a time into bowl with sugar using spoon, cover the donut with sugar.
Repeat steps 3, 4 & 5 until finished.
Serve immediately.
Tips:
If you want more donuts and/or would like them not as thick, you can separate each biscuit (there are layered) in half. Some restaurants even cut them in half so they are half circles or even half moons.
I used a sauce pan to fry these up. I think I had about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of vegetable oil (about a 2 inch layer) and I was able to fry about 2 to 3 donuts at once.
