Ingredients
- 1 can 8ct jumbo biscuits, we prefer flaky over buttermilk or homestyle
- Oil for frying
- Vanilla donut glaze *see notes for recipe
Method
- Add oil to frying pan until at least 1 inch deep. Heat over medium to high heat until oil reaches 330°F to 350°F.
- While oil is heating, use a small round cutter or piping tip to cut the center from each biscuit.
- Carefully place biscuits in hot oil. Don’t overcrowd the pan. Fry each side until golden brown (about 1½–2 minutes per side).
- Remove and cool on paper towels or wire rack for a minute or two.
- Dip in glaze. Add toppings immediately if desired.

Vanilla Donut Glaze Recipe
Ingredients:
- Powdered sugar
- High-quality vanilla
- Cream (start with 3 tablespoons and add more to reach desired consistency)
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla, and cream until smooth.
- Adjust cream to preferred consistency—aim for a steady stream when lifting the whisk.
Tips:
- Heavy cream creates a thicker glaze; whipping cream yields a lighter one.
- Glaze sets slightly when left to air dry.
- Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days.
- Great for donuts, sweet breads, and pastries.
