Melt 4 tablespoon of butter in the microwave and set aside.

Mix together some sugar and cinnamon on a plate so it will be ready to dip donuts. I didn’t really measure this but you can use about 1 cup sugar and 1 ½ tablespoons of cinnamon if you need a measurement.

Pour about a ½ inch of oil into a skillet and let it get hot while making the holes for my donuts.

Heat your oil on medium-high for about 5 minutes. You want it hot enough to start cooking the biscuit right away so that it prevents it from soaking up too much oil and becoming soggy.

I used a melon baller to make my holes but you can use whatever you have available. Another great option would be a small round cookie cutter.

After your oil is hot and ready to go carefully place the donuts in and let them get golden brown.

Once they are golden brown on one side flip them to finish browning on the other side. This only takes about a minute.

After the donuts have cooked fully on both sides take them up and place them on a napkin-lined plate or pan.

Once they have cooled you will then dip one side in the melted butter (let drip) and then dip into the cinnamon/sugar mix.

You can do this on both sides of the donut or just one, whichever you prefer, we like to do both sides.
