1 can Pillsbury Grands biscuits
1/2 c. white sugar
2 tbs. brown sugar
2 tbs. ground cinnamon
1 tsp. ground nutmeg
1 tsp. ground cloves
1 egg
almond spice cream cheese glaze
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (according to biscuit directions), and lightly grease a cookie sheet.
In a cereal bowl, mix together sugars and spices. Set this mixture aside, and scramble the egg in a second cereal bowl. These two bowls will serve as your dredging station–much of the same process as preparing fried chicken.
Pop open the biscuit can, removing one biscuit at at time. With your thumbs, make a small hole in the center of each biscuit and shape into a donut. You’ll want to make sure that the center circle is large because the biscuit will spread and expand during the baking process.
After your donut is formed, use a fork to dip the dough into the cereal bowl filled with scrambled egg. Make sure both sides get coated, and be sure to let any access egg drain from the dough before moving on.
Next, dip the egg covered donut into the sugar/spice mixture. Don’t forget to flip the donut so both sides get their fair share of sweetness. Place each donut 2″ apart on the greased cookie sheet.
Repeat the egg and sugar/spice dredging for all 8 donuts. Bake the donuts according to biscuit directions (15-18 minutes).
When the donuts look puffy and crispy (but not burnt) on the outside, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a cooling rack.
Drizzle each baked donut with a bit of my go-to almond spice cream cheese glaze and before serving.
