Donuts Combat Depression....news at 11

Even better, these donuts are easy peasy.

After the last few weeks of me dieting, my kids are a little droopy.

My husband is trying to cut calories as well so to make things easy on him and I, I found this recipe from Paula Deen. Yup. Good ole' canned buscuits.

Its really quite easy.

Lay out the eight buscuits and cut small center holes in each.

Heat oil in a dutch oven to about 350 degrees.

Drop the donut/buscuit dough into the oil, and turn once it's brown.

(the first one was not done all the way through, so I turned the heat down a bit and cooked the others longer)

After I removed them from the oil, I placed them on a paper towel.

I used 1/2 C. sugar and mixed with 1 T. cinnamon in a bowl to then coat the each donut.

Yummy. I ate a few of the holes, which was cheating on the diet, but just what I needed to hit the craving but not ruin the whole day!!!!!

I seriously could have eaten several hearing all the "Oh man,"s and the "So good!"s.

Back to the leans and greens.
