Ingredients:

1 cup Vegetable Oil, for frying
4.5 oz pkg Pillsbury Refrigerated Buttermilk Biscuits*
Confectioner’s Sugar &/or Cinnamon-sugar, for dusting

Directions:

Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until very hot, about 5 minutes. To make doughnuts, push fingers through the center of each biscuit and stretch into a doughnut shape. Gently place doughnuts in hot oil. Fry about 1 minute per side or until golden brown. Remove doughnuts with a long handle of a wooden spoon or a fork, and place on wire rack. Cool about 1 minute, then dust doughnuts with confectioner’s sugar, or sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar. Serve immediately. Makes 6 mini doughnuts.

Helpful Tips:

*Use any refrigerated biscuit you prefer, but if using larger sizes, the doughnuts will take slightly longer to cook. I like the 4.5 ounce package because it makes the mini size! I like to cover half of the doughnuts with confectioner’s sugar and half with the cinnamon-sugar. If desired, you could also drizzle with a confectioner’s sugar icing and sprinkle with non-pareils, chocolate shot, coconut, nuts, or any favorite topping.
