Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 can Pillsbury Grands Buttermilk Biscuits Dough (8-count)

  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Separate dough into individual biscuits.
  2. Flatten each biscuit dough with the palm of your hands; Cut in half.
  3. Place 0.5 teaspoon of Jelly in the middle of each half.
  4. Form each biscuit into a ball by pinching together the ends and then rolling the dough in between your palms.
  5. Fill a saucepan about a 1/3 way up with oil; heat oil.
  6. Once the oil is hot, lower the heat to medium-low. That's about a "3" on my gas stove.
  7. Drop the doughnuts into the saucepan, 2 to 3 at a time.
  8. Fry them for 1 to 2 minutes or until golden, and then flip with tongs to fry the other side.
  9. Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl; toss the doughnuts in the cinnamon-sugar mixture while they're still warm.
  10. Serve immediately.

Notes

These donut holes are best served fresh and warm for maximum flavor and texture.
