Ingredients

• 1 can Pillsbury Grands Flaky Layers Biscuits
• 4 cups Vegetable oil
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1 cup Powdered sugar (optional, for glaze)
• 2 tablespoons Milk (optional, for glaze)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional, for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

Open the can of Pillsbury Grands biscuits and separate the biscuits onto a clean surface.

Step 2

Using a small round cutter (like a bottle cap or a piping tip), cut out the centers of each biscuit to create the classic doughnut shape. Save the centers to fry as doughnut holes.

Step 3

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a kitchen thermometer to ensure the oil stays at the right temperature, as this is key to golden, evenly cooked doughnuts.

Step 4

Carefully place 2-3 doughnuts into the hot oil at a time, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the doughnuts for 1-2 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown.

Step 5

Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried doughnuts and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining doughnuts and doughnut holes.

Step 6

While the doughnuts are still warm, toss them in granulated sugar, or a mixture of sugar and cinnamon, to coat. For doughnuts with glaze, proceed to the next step.

Step 7

To make the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth. Dip the tops of the cooled doughnuts into the glaze and place them back on the wire rack to set.

Step 8

Serve the doughnuts fresh and enjoy! They are best eaten on the same day they are made.
