• Total Time: 25 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 10 donuts ...

• 1 (7 1/2 ounce) can refrigerator biscuits
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• 2 tablespoons apple juice
• 3 cups canola oil

Directions:

1. Remove the biscuits from the can and place onto a cutting board. Using a 1/2-inch biscuit cutter or the cap from a water bottle remove the center from each biscuit. Place both the donuts and donut holes onto a sheet pan and allow them to rest and come to temperature, about 15 minutes.
2. In a large bowl combine powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice and apple juice. Whisk together until smooth and well combined. Set aside.
3. Heat the oil, in a medium pot over medium heat, to 350 degrees F.
4. Fry the donuts, 3 at a time, until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Remove from oil and place on a sheet tray lined with a paper towel. Repeat with remaining donuts and donut holes.
5. Dip the top of each donut into the prepared glaze and place on a serving tray. Let glaze set about 5 minutes and serve.
