On Monday nights we have Family Night… and this was one of our treats. I was the easiest one so far and the kids had a blast making the holes in the donuts. Another tradition that includes donuts is on Halloween. After a full night of gathering candy, we come home and have homemade donuts and hot chocolate 🙂
All you need is:
-2 cans refrigerated biscuits (or Rhodes Frozen Roll Dough thawed)
-vegetable oil (enough to pour about 1″ in your frying pan)
-Cinnamon and Sugar (in a bowl)
Take the biscuits out of the cans and let sit at room temperature for a little while (a good time to give a lesson about something for family night)
Heat up the oil on medium heat for about 5 min.
While the oil is heating up, have the kids poke holes in the biscuits and stretch the dough out slightly.
Mom or dad then dips the dough into the hot oil, one fluffed up and you can see that it’s browning, flip it over with a chop stick and brown the other side. Immediately dip both sides into the cinnamon/ sugar mixture and let rest on a plate with paper towels.

I will def have to try these since we buy donuts from the donut shop at least 3 times a week
