Donuts

Last week at work a guy I work with came in and asked if I wanted anything from Dunkin Donuts. I said ya can you grab me a donut. He told me "you don't need a donut you need to eat healthy" and walked away. So I was mad all day and I went home and made my own.

Ingredients (food network)

  • 1 orange, zested
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 container (8 large) store-bought buttermilk biscuit dough
  • Peanut oil, for frying
  • 1 cup Coconut (I added this because I love coconut)

Directions

Place zest, sugar and cinnamon in a paper bag and shake to combine.

Place oil in a deep pan until it comes about halfway up the side of the pan. Heat oil to 350 degrees F.

Slice biscuit dough in quarters and roll into balls to form 24 donut holes (or use some to make full sized donuts). Working in batches, place donut holes in hot oil and fry until golden, about 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the hot donuts to the paper bag and shake to coat with orange sugar. Serve immediately.
