My husband loved these. I thought they were just okay. I think they have too much sugar on them when rolled in sugar. I think they would be better if you just sprinkled them with sugar, because all I could taste was sugar.

I made this for a group of girls for breakfast after a sleepover. The doughnuts were not good (very hard) and not kid approved:(

ok so i tried this and it would taste pretty good if they weren't so hard to me it was basically a waste of time and food

i think i must have used too much sugar. they looked beautiful, i even drizzled melted choc icing over them. however they were rock hard! not sure if i'll give them another try since i botched them up. they do at least look good in a picture so my friends think i'm a good homemaker!

This was an ok recipe but nothing spectatular. I added some cinanamon to the sugar as well. They are definetly tasty when they come fresh and hot out of the oven, but as soon as they cool off, they lose their taste. This is good if you need a quick cheap and healthy donut, but it's not something to serve to guests.

I tried it before but can't say I'm a fan. Most likely won't try this recipe again.

We all love these doughnuts especially since you can bake them. No matter the reviews, this is an excellent recipe, especially if you realize they will never taste like fried doughnuts.

I don't know why anyone would expect these to taste like traditional doughnuts. They're made from biscuit dough, for goodness sake! I used the larger can of biscuits (it's what I had) & used colored sugar as well as cinnamon. My 2-1/2 y.o. had a ball making them with me & she enjoyed the results, too. Great little kitchen project with kids & they're yummy, definitely wins points with me.

Made exactly as recipe call for, they stuck to the pan, you do need a greased sheet. Thought they would rise higher, tasty but not fluffy, more like cookies than donuts.

My daughter thought these were wonderful. No, they probably wouldn't be considered a "doughnut" in the true sense of the word but they were very good!
