Biscuit Beignets
Ingredients:
1 can Original or Southern Style Pillsbury biscuits
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 quarts Canola oil for frying
2 cups powdered sugar
Jam or jelly for dipping
Directions:
Bring Canola oil to 350 degrees.
While your oil is heating, cut your biscuits into one-inch strips. Toss the strips in the all-purpose flour and use a sifter to remove excess flour.
Fry biscuit pieces in oil until golden brown, and the inside is cooked through. Approximately 6 minutes.
Remove from oil. Place on a plate/tray on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Place beignets and powdered sugar in a bowl, toss to coat.
Put the beignets in your serving bowl and top with additional powdered sugar. Serve with any jam of your choosing!
