Ingredients

  • 4 cups vegetable oil
  • 1 (16oz.) can flaky jumbo biscuits
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons whole milk

Instructions

  1. 1

    Add vegetable oil into a heavy bottom pot. You want at least 2 inches of oil covering the bottom of the pot. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F.

  2. 2

    Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Set this next to the pot of hot oil.

  3. 3

    Make the glaze. Stir together powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth. Set this aside.

  4. 4

    Open the can of biscuits and use scissors to cut each biscuit into 6 pieces. Roll the pieces in your hands to make them as round as possible.

  5. 5

    Use a slotted spoon to carefully place a few donut holes at a time into the hot oil. Do not crowd them, as this will cause the oil to drop in temperature. It will only take a few minutes for each to cook.

  6. 6

    Remove the golden donut holes to the baking sheet lined with paper towels. Allow them to cool slightly.

  7. 7

    Use a fork or tongs to dip and swirl each donut, one by one, into the glaze. Allow the excess glaze to drip off before placing them on a wire rack to set.
