I've got a quick and easy recipe for Homemade Glazed Biscuit Donuts that will take you only minutes to prepare! Using refrigerated biscuit dough makes this recipe super easy to make. The donuts are light and fluffy and are dunked in a sweet crackly glaze. Each bite truly melts in your mouth!
Heat oil in a large pot or dutch oven to 375° F using a thermometer. It's easiest when the thermometer clips to the side of the pot to ensure the temperature is consistently at 375°F.
Place paper towels on a wire rack where you will place donuts when they come out of the hot oil. Set up another wire rack next to the first one for the glazing station. Place a paper towel underneath to catch excess glaze for easy clean up.
Mix glaze ingredients together until smooth. Add more hot water as needed for the consistency desired.
Separate biscuits and cut circles in the center of each disk. Roll each center piece into balls. Place donuts 2 at a time into hot oil until golden brown. Flip onto other side and fry again until golden brown. This should only take about 1-2 minutes for each side.
Scoop donuts out with a slotted spoon and place on paper towel lined wire rack for 1 minute. Immediately dip hot donuts in glaze on both sides and place on wire rack.
Repeat the frying and glazing process for the rest of the donuts and donut holes. Serve immediately.
Notes
Storage instructions: Donuts are best served immediately or same day.
