Mini Apple Spiced  Glazed Doughnuts

Ingredients

• 1 (7.5-ounce) can refrigerator biscuits
• 3 cups of canola oil
• Glaze:
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• 2 tablespoons apple juice
• 1 tablespoon of milk
• 
  

Directions

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.

In a large bowl combine powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice and apple juice. Whisk together until smooth and well combined. Set aside.

Heat the oil, in a medium pot over medium heat, to 350 degrees F.

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.

Dip the top of each donut into the prepared glaze and place on a serving tray. Let glaze set about 5 minutes and serve. We got this recipe from foodnetwork.com
