Every child should have a doughnut every now and then! Or is it donut? According to the googles, both ways of spelling are ok so I will just mix it up a little. 🙂 I am always looking for new ways to make treats for all my kiddos, and I have been looking for a good donut recipe to try. I remembered back in home-ec class during high school when we learned how to make biscuit dough. Then they taught us how to make other things using that dough like cinnamon rolls and…Donuts!! I decided to give it a try, but I really didn’t have time to roll and knead dough so I pulled out the canned biscuits. It was quick, easy, and SOOOOO delicious! I used can biscuits from Aldi which don’t have eggs or milk. Make sure you read the entire package though because many of them do have milk. Enjoy!
| Dairy Free Egg Free Donuts with Sugar Glaze |
- Canned Biscuits (Read the label to find some that do not contain dairy or egg). Most do contain wheat or so so you’d have to find an alternative if you avoid those allergens).
- 2 Cups Oil , any will do – I use Coconut Oil
- For Glaze:
- 1 Cup water
- 2 Cups Sugar
- Put Oil in Large Skillet and turn to medium high
- Spread Biscuits out on Cutting Board
- Make holes in biscuits – I used an apple corer to make them, but you can use whatever you have around.
- Add Donuts to heated oil(make sure at least half the donut is submersed.
- Fry in oil until browned(less than a minute- Watch them closely or they will burn)
- Turn over and brown the other side
- Remove from skillet.
- To Make Glaze:
- Add water to Saucepan, bring to a boil
- Turn down heat and add sugar
- stir frequently until you have a syrupy texture.
- Dip donuts in Glaze with tongs(fully submerge).
- Set on Cookie sheet to cool
- Enjoy!
Great receipes but what if we can’t eat wheat/gluten or sugar either???? do you have any gluten free, egg, dairy and sugar free recipes???
Hi Marilyn,
Thanks so much! My main experience is with Dairy Free, Egg Free, and Nut Free, but I’m working on adding some gluten free stuff so stick around:)

Any hints on the dairy free egg free brands of muffins to look for? I have not found any so far 🙁
Hey April, I have never found any dairy free/egg free muffins, and I have read so many different packages. Walmart and Aldi do have a brand of Honey Buns that are dairy/Egg free.
But as for muffins, we have to bake our own around here. Muffins freeze well though so If you make a big batch you can throw them in a freezer back & pull out as needed.
I can not find Canned Biscuits that do not contain dairy or egg!!! 🙁 What brand do you use??
It can be difficult, but I have found some store brands that are safe. I’m not sure if you have Winn Dixie or Publix where you live but their store brands are dairy and egg free. Also, The Pillsbury biscuits that are in a green package and are usually packaged in a 4 pack are ok as well. Next time I go to the store I will try and take a picture to show exactly the ones I’m talking about.
Thank you Holly!
