Home Is Where My Story Begins

Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

Shhh.
Don’t tell my family how easy these were! 

My boys were watching a movie and my daughter was playing with her toys, while I was working in the kitchen.  Next thing they knew, I had homemade donuts for everyone to try!  There were oohs and aahhs about how yummy these were, and what a nice surprise.  My son told me several times that I should sell the recipe to Frost (our favorite donut shop).

Ready for my secret?
It’s canned biscuit dough.  It’s not even name brand biscuit dough.  I bought plain old buttermilk biscuits, used my donut cutter to shape them, fried them for about 40 seconds on each side, and coated them with cinnamon sugar.
Done.

Like I said… don’t tell.  They think I spent hours making a special treat!

Happy baking!

    Boy, that brings back memories! My mom used to make doughnuts the same way when we were little. We had a Labor Day parade that went past our house on Main, and mom made these doughnuts to go with apple cider.

    PS They are also good just tossed with powdered sugar in a paper bag.
