Instructions
1
Line a plate with paper towels and set aside.
2
Set a cooling rack over a baking tray and set aside for the glazed donut holes.
3
Place your frying oil in a dutch oven over medium heat. Use a candy thermometer to ensure you bring the oil to 350F.
4
Cut each biscuit with a small circular cookie cutter, then shape similarly sized balls of dough with the remaining biscuit dough.
5
Once oil is hot, fry donut holes in groups of 5 or 6 for about 1 minute per side, until golden brown. Set fried donut holes on the paper towel lined plate.
Honey Glaze
1
In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, honey and hot water.
2
Sift the powdered icing sugar into the butter mixture, whisk together to form a thick glaze.
3
Whisk in the vanilla extract, then in groups of 4-5, dip the donut holes in the honey glaze.
4
Set the glazed donuts on the prepared cooling rack over a baking sheet.
5
Allow to set for 30 minutes until dry to the touch.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Oil Temperature Precision 🌡️Maintain oil at 350°F for perfectly golden, evenly-cooked donut holes that are crispy outside and fluffy inside without greasiness.
- Honey-Butter Emulsion Secret 🍯Warm honey and butter together before whisking in powdered sugar to create a silky, lump-free glaze that coats beautifully without clumping.
- Biscuit Dough Handling Trick 👐Keep dough slightly cool and work quickly with lightly floured hands to prevent sticking, ensuring uniform, tender donut holes that cook evenly.
- Double-Dip Glazing Technique ✨Dip warm donut holes twice—first coat then second coat after 30 seconds—for a thick, luxurious honey glaze that won't slide off.
- Vanilla Extract Infusion 🌾Add vanilla extract directly to the glaze rather than the dough to enhance flavor intensity without affecting the dough's texture or frying results.
