Quick and easy homemade doughnuts made from Pillsbury biscuit dough, fried until golden brown and coated in a delicious mixture of cinnamon, sugar, and roasted sesame seeds.
Ingredients
- •½ cup sugar
- •2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

Cooking Instructions
- 1.
Mix the sugar, cinnamon, and sesame seeds in a medium-size bowl.
2 min

Pop open the tube of dough and pull apart the biscuits-they come preportioned, so this will be easy. In a big, heavy pot, heat the shortening over high heat; you'll know it's ready when a tiny piece of biscuit dough sizzles when added to the oil. Fry the biscuit dough until each piece becomes puffy and brown on all sides, about 2 minutes. Flip the pieces over and fry them for 2 minutes more.
