If you really want a good raised donut without the hassle of make a yeast dough, try the Grand Biscuits! Use the Southern Style or Buttermilk ones, flatten slightly & cut out a hole in the center. Deep fry like you would a regular raised donut. These taste better than the real thing & stay soft$ for quite awhile. They are a little saltier but still taste great. I sugared mine, but would be good with a glaze.

Made them with the grandchildren. They were more cookie like because they were too crispy. Will try again, but remove them from the oven 2 or 3 minutes sooner.

They definately did not taste like traditional doughnuts. However for the cost of the ingredients if you are on a budget these are not bad. My kids really likes them. I cooked them for too long so they were more like "cookies" then doughnuts. I will probably make them again but will try it with some of the other suggestions from this site I read.

Very good and easy to make! I usually fry mine so this is a much lighter doughnut! I like the way it came out, it was just a little hard to remove from the pan so greasing may be a good idea for next time!

I bought the big biscuits (16.3 oz) package...they puffed up nicely,and looked and tasted great! I made mine and my husband's with cinnamon sugar and he really enjoyed it.

Not anything like a donut said: report Posted: 2/17/2009 3:59:11 PM
These did not come out puffy and donut-like, but flat and almost like a really heavy sugar cookie.

I thought these were allright.I must be the oddity.I kind of knew based on the ingredients and how they are made they will not taste like traditional or bought doughnuts.I read the ingredients and could guess from that what they would taste like and they did.
