2 Ingredient Donut - Hot fresh Donuts in Minutes for Pennies - Kids Love Them -The Hillbilly Kitchen

hiy folks and welcome to the hillbilly kitchen today we're making the world's easiest Donuts now there's nothing quite as good as a fresh hot dut and there are recipes that you know just take a very long time to make but for these all you need is a can of Homestyle biscuits and any brand will work when my kids were little I used to use the four packs of biscuits that got all together and we would make these especially it seem like when it snowed they absolutely Ely loved them and you need about a/4 of an inch oil in a skillet now you can put your oil in a pot or in a deep fryer and deep fry these but oil is expensive and a/4 of an inch is a whole lot cheaper than a whole pot full and if you do it in a skillet you can get more Donuts in at one time and you can spread them out you want to get your oil hot and while your oil is heating you need something to cut a hole in your dut because Donuts always have a hole in them this is like the cap off of a ready whipped can I know y'all got these it's winter time but I found this little case that has a digital thermometer in it and if you want to you can even test the temperature of your oil I don't know what it needs to be at I just turn it on about medium and let it heat up I can put the temperature in the description if y'all want it but I test it with a doughnut hole to see if it's hot anyways you want to cut a hole in the middle of your dut because they got to have a hole and we're going to cook them holes too these would be good for um sleepovers when you're snowed in and it's snowed in season I mean the winter storms are all that's on the news thank goodness cuz I was tired of what was on [Music] it let's talk about the weather for a while and like these I think I paid 80 cents for a can of these now when my kids were growing up I could get four packs of those little biscuits I was talking about for a dollar all the time and that was really really good but 80 cents for 10 Donuts plus the doughnut holes you cannot buy them anywhere even for 80 cents a dut I think if you go in the local grocery stores after 6:00 p.m. when the duts are good and stale you can get them for a dollar a piece so you know you can have 10 hot fresh donuts and 10 dnut holes for way less than one stale doughnut and that's in a grocery store so what I'm going to do like I said I've got my oil on medium I'm going to drop one donut hole in there and when that doughnut hole starts bubbling I'll know that my oil is hot you do want to wait till your oil is hot because if you put them in the pan when the oil is not hot they'll stick to the bottom of the pan and you can cook them in any pan you've got thicker the bottom the better because it disperses the heat more evenly now I said oil is expensive you can save this oil too you're not putting any sugar in it all you're putting in it is just the biscuits and you're frying the biscuits in it so strain this oil once it's cool and put it in like a a glass mason jar or even some other kind of glass jar and you can keep it and you can reuse it you can fry more Donuts you can fry potatoes you can fry whatever you want to in it don't throw this out it's a lot of oil all right let's get these Donuts put in there and all we're going to do is add them to the hot oil and brown them on both sides and it just takes a minute to cook them and when they get brown on one side we'll flip them over and brown them on the other side now you're not going to be able to get all these in your paint at one time obviously but I'm going to go ahead and fill my pan up because I've got my donuts and my donut holes to cook now they are all sticking to the bottom of the pan when they get ready to flip they will release and that's how you know when they're done you don't want to leave them on one side too long cuz it literally just takes a second okay and when they're golden brown on each side you want to take them out and drain them and as you take them out you want to put one back in that will maintain your oil temperature and I got to work faster because they really cook fast and if you don't hurry you will have burned donuts and nobody wants a burn donut adjust your temperature My Pan is just a little bit warm so I'm turning it down I mean if you see them cooking too fast you just turn it down a little bit now you can literally fry up a batch of these in just a minute and if you need two or three dozen of them it just takes a few minutes to do it this would be something good for church you know your Sunday school class or your youth group because they do fry up so quick and then once you get them fried up you can let the kids put what they want on them and a couple simple little things are some cinnamon and sugar which is how I usually fix them for my kids or you can make a basic dut glaze they're all done already I mean it literally just takes a minute to fry up the tin pack of of H biscuits and once they're all brown they're all done I mean you don't need to worry about the center not being done now to coat them what I used was about a teaspoon of cinnamon and half2 cup of sugar just plain old granulated sugar you do want to do this when they're still um hot and you just roll it in them and you can also put the cinnamon sugar in a bag and toss them if you want to once they've drained just a little bit but that's how I would coat them for my kids but you can also do a basic doughnut glaze and for the basic doughnut glaze you just need a little powdered sugar and move my extra cutting devices out of the way uh some vanilla and some milk and I didn't measure any of this I will put some measurements in the description um I'd say I've got probably 3/4 of a cup of powdered sugar there anyway and uh I just put a little vanilla in it and you're just going to use enough milk to turn this into a glaze and it's going to vary based on how tight your powdered sugar is packed based on the humidity based on a lot of stuff but you just add milk until it turns into a glaze and add it slowly like a tablespoon or two to start with and then add a teaspoon or so at a time these are good for holidays too because you can add sprinkles to them um Christmas and Valentine's Day is coming up you could put a little bit of pink food coloring in your glaze and turn them pink and then put some little Valentine's day sprinkles on them at Christmas you know do Christmas sprinkles and at Easter do some pastel um sprinkles and kids just absolutely love these and if you were doing them you know like I said at church or something you know for five or six bucks you could donut the youth group instead of spending 35 or 40 bucks and you can even let the kids dip them in the cinnamon sugar or in the glaze and you can do a chocolate glaze with this we've done that before in other um videos okay that's what you want right there just a glaze and I don't even have it mixed up real good but that's all right too and what you're going to do with these you can do it when it's super hot or you can let it cool that that's why this one's good for the kids and you just dip it and let it drip a little bit and you can totally submerse them if you want to you can dip one side if you're trying to control the amount of sugar the kids get it's but it's not as much sugar as that sugary cereal that they get now that will dry clear like a doughnut glaze and like I said you can add sprinkles to it it and do it like for Valentine's Day is that pretty and that's just all there is to making the world's easiest donuts and we did these every single time it snowed for my kids and when they were really little they like the doughnut holes more than the donuts so I would do whole batches of doughnut holes and they would have doughnut holes for breakfast and you can do that you just cut the whole biscuit into little rounds and you know if you cut it close you don't even have any waste give these a try especially if you're snowed in and like I said it is the season it'll save you some money you can keep the biscuits in your refrigerator for this time of year buy them when they're on sale and you know a dozen donuts are a dollar instead of1 or 12 uh there is a no spin January challenge and January and February challenge people are trying to catch up from the holidays and maybe get out of debt and we're going to be sharing a lot of moneysaving recipes and moneysaving tips we're going to start our garden here very very soon we're going to start some seeds which is something good to let kids do it's a really easy craft and
