Cover the bottom of your skillet with vegetable oil. (1/4-1/2 inch
thick) and place on the stove top at a medium/high heat. While you
let that heat up, pop open that can and separate the biscuits onto a
plate. Take your apple corer and punch out the center of your
biscuits. Use your finger to gently push out the center bit. You can
save these centers and make doughnut holes with them. By the time
you've punched out the centers of all your doughnuts your oil
should be hot enough to begin frying. Test out the oils by placing in
some doughnut holes in the oil, you should hear the nice sizzle
sound and they should begin to bubble around the outside. Once
you see the it's hot enough you can begin to add in the regular
doughnuts.

You will see the doughnuts begin to brown up on the bottom in the
oil, that's how you know it's time to flip. I would say total time in
the oil is about 1 minute per each side. (you should be using tongs).
When your second side starts to brown, use your tongs to remove
the doughnuts from the oil and place on the paper towel plate to
cool. The paper towel will help absorb any extra oil that may be on
the doughnut. Let your doughnuts cool for a few minutes and mix
the toppings in separate bowls. Dip the doughnuts into the
cinnamon and sugar mix, top off with just glaze or spice it up with
sprinkles.
