Cooking from scratch wasn\u2019t my mom\u2019s thing.\u00a0 However, what she could do with a tube of refrigerated biscuits was amazing.\u00a0 Fried biscuits and donut holes are two of my personal favorites.<\/p>\n

Fried Biscuits<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Open a tube of refrigerated biscuit and separate each biscuit.\u00a0 Flour a flat surface and your rolling pin.\u00a0 Put a biscuit on the floured surface and sprinkle a little more flour on the biscuit\u2019s top.\u00a0 Roll the biscuit out until its about the size of a saucer (4 to 5 inches across).\u00a0 Cut a slit in the middle of the flatten biscuit and set aside.\u00a0 Repeat until all the biscuits have been rolled flat.\u00a0 Heat a generous amount of oil in a skillet.\u00a0 Fry the biscuits to a golden brown around the edges and serve immediately with honey, jam, syrup, fruit, or whatever you have on hand.\u00a0 Makes 10<\/p>\n

Donut Holes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Heat a saucepan of oil (about 2 inches deep) over a medium high heat.\u00a0 Open a tube of refrigerated biscuits and separate each biscuit.\u00a0 Use a sharp knife to cut each biscuit into four pieces.\u00a0 Drop pieces into hot oil (oil should be hot enough so when you poke the handle of a wooden spoon in it, tiny bubbles are seen coming from the spoon\u2019s handle or 375 degrees) and fry to a dark golden brown all over.\u00a0\u00a0 (FYI: the donut holes usually turn over on their own but you might have to help a few).\u00a0 Remove from oil and toss in a bowl, or brown paper bag, containing either powder sugar or cinnamon sugar.\u00a0 Serve hot from the bowl or bag.\u00a0 (Since they are \u201choles\u201d, there are no calories, right?)\u00a0 Makes 40<\/p>\n

Here’s bowl of Mom’s Donut Holes tossed in powder sugar.\u00a0 The sugar melts when it mixes with the powdered sugar so I will toss it just before serving so you have a glaze under the powder.\u00a0 Now you can better understand why these are a breakfast favorite.<\/p>\n
