Equipment

  • Cast iron pan or Dutch oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tube refrigerator biscuit dough
  • cooking oil, for frying enough to allow your donuts to float a little
  • 1 cup granulated, sugar
  • 2 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • In an iron skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil on low until shimmering hot. If the oil is too hot, the outside will brown and the inside will be raw, so make sure to cook on low.
  • Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon, stirring to get an even mixture for coating the donut.
  • Open biscuits and pole a hole in the middle of each biscuit to resemble a donut.
  • Once the oil is hot, carefully drop 3-4 biscuits into the oil and cook about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden and then flip the donut over to cook the other side.
  • When the donut is golden on each side, carefully remove the donut and place onto paper towels to drain for a moment.
  • Then carefully drop the hot donut into the cinnamon sugar and coat your donut on all sides. Enjoy!!

Notes

*As an alternative, you can also coat your donut in powdered sugar*
