Description

This easy Southern-style dessert transforms canned biscuits into golden, crispy fried treats. With a texture similar to donuts but made with simple pantry staples, these fried cookies are perfect for a quick sweet fix. The dough is fried until puffy and brown, then coated in a sweet cinnamon-sugar mixture or drizzled with glaze. Ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a nostalgic snack, they pair wonderfully with coffee or tea. Minimal prep time means you can enjoy this comforting, homemade-style treat in under thirty minutes.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC).
  2. Separate the canned biscuits if they are connected.
  3. Poke a hole in the center of each biscuit to create a donut shape.
  4. Carefully place biscuits in the hot oil, ensuring you do not crowd the pan.
  5. Fry until golden brown on one side, then flip once to cook the other side.
  6. Remove from oil and drain well on paper towels.
  7. While still warm, roll biscuits in cinnamon sugar or dip in glaze.

Note

Use regular canned biscuits rather than flaky or buttermilk varieties for the best texture similar to a donut.

Do not crowd the pan when frying; this ensures even cooking and prevents the oil temperature from dropping too low.

For the coating, mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar with 1/2 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon to taste for a custom blend.

Serve immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.
