OC Camper's homemade donuts

[Chez Way]

Thanks to Jacqui, I was a big hit yesterday when I made these at home for my kids.  Jacqui made them at the rally in Yucaipa.

1 container of 99 cent Ralph's (generic brand) refrigerator biscuits
vegetable oil
powdered sugar
cinnamon sugar

Cut hole in biscuits with a water bottle cap.  Heat up oil in in large fry pan and fry up the "donuts" and "donut holes".  Sprinkle or dip in the sugar...yum!

Jacqui has made these donuts for the Saturday morning breakfasts at our rallies and mini-rallies.  I've heard they're very good.  Of course, when I finally get to the place on the buffet line where the donut platter is, it's already empty.  Hmmm...come to think of it....Jeanne and Deidre were always in line ahead of me....

We've done this for about the last 25yrs.  I also just take the biscuit and kinda stretch it till it's about 1/3 to 1/2 the thickness and fry.

Another one that is on the same line as the doughnuts is:
 
*NOTE: the measurements are a guess on my part, I don't have a recipe, but do it by feel/sight. So this is a recipe you can play with and adjust to your taste.
 
PULL APARTS
 
2 cans biscuits
1 cube Margarine or butter, melted
2 Tablespoons Cinnamon (or more to taste)
1/2 cup Sugar (may need more)
 
 
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
 
Mix cinnamon and sugar in a bowl and set aside. Pop open the biscuits, one at at time, and cut each round into 4 (easiest using a scissor), toss in sugar mixture and put into a bundt pan. If there is any sugar mixture left, pour over the biscuits. Pour margarine over the biscuits. Bake for 30 minutes.
 
When done invert onto a dinner plate and have fun pulling these tasty morsels apart. I have also seen recipes that use flavored Jello (like strawberry) instead of the sugar mixture. The kids would love them!
 
Enjoy,
 
Joan

Hey Lori, I resemble that remark!

I'm hungry again, but don't need more sugar. Another thing to do with the quartered biscuits is to toss them in melted butter and dill. The cook in the bundt pan and have for dinner.

I may give the pull apart recipe a try for breakfast this Sunday since we'll be camping.  It should be an easy breakfast to have before we start breaking camp.

Thanks for the compliment Jeanne.   My kids tell me that I have to make donuts when ever we have a rally.    I actually use the "hockey puck" style biscuits.  They are the ones that are usally 2 or 3 for a dollar.  I have never tried them with the "grand" size.  I bet they would doubly delicious.  What I like about this recipe is you can make it even when you don't have hookups.  Kids of all ages love them.

Lori if Jeanne and I both make these, I am sure you will get some at the next campout.

I have never tried any other variations but who would  of knowed how versitile canned biscuits could be.

Yeah, now I remember.  They were the 2 for 99 cents containers that I used.  Now we just have to figure out how to make them with the chocolate topping...yum!

[oldmoose]

One container of chocolate frosting does the trick. Add another notch to the belt.:#

Yum...  my grandmom use to make these for us!! They are  best when still warm!!

You could also melt milk chocolate chips.  How do they turn out with powdered sugar?  I usually use granulated sugar.  I bet powdered sugar is really good too.
