Pineapple Drop Doughnuts Recipes

Steps:

• Sift together dry ingredients.
• Mix together wet ingredients and incorporate into dry. Stir until smooth.
• Drop by teaspoonfuls(no bigger) into hot oil (365 degrees, no hotter), turning after a few moments until golden brown on all sides.
• Remove and drain.
• Roll in cinnamon sugar while still warm and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Carefully slice the pineapple rings in half horizontally to make them into thin rings. Set aside.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan, then turn off the heat and whisk in the brown sugar until completely blended. Spoon a tablespoon of the sugar mixture into each well of a nonstick metal doughnut pan, then add a pineapple slice to each, pressing down firmly.
• Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, oil, vanilla, egg, reserved pineapple juice and 1/4 cup water in a separate medium bowl. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry until fully blended. Pour into a large piping bag or gallon resealable plastic bag, snip the corner to make a 3/4-inch opening and pipe some batter into the doughnut pan, filling each well just shy of the top.
• Put the doughnut pan on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until a toothpick inserted in the doughnuts comes out clean, about 10 minutes. Cool the doughnuts in the pan 5 minutes, then loosen from the pan with an offset spatula and invert onto a cooling rack. Top each doughnut with a cherry and repeat with the remaining batter two more times.

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; mix well.
• Add the milk, eggs and pineapple, stirring until smooth.
• Heat 3 to 4 inches of oil to 375*F
• Carefully drop batter by heaping tablespoonfuls into hot oil.
• Cook about 1 minute or until golden brown on one side, turn and cook about 1 minute or until golden brown on the other side.
• Drain well on paper towels and sprinkle with powdered sugar
• NOTE: If your doughnuts turn out greasy it is because your oil is not hot enough! First rule of Southern Cooking: WE FRY EVERYTHING! Second rule of Southern Cooking: Make sure your frying oil is HOT enough!
• NOTE: I usually cook between 4 & 6 doughnuts at a time and remove the others to a warm oven before serving!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine flour, white sugar, baking powder, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl.
• Add buttermilk, (I used milk with ½ tablespoons lemon juice, let it sit for 5 minutes), egg, and melted butter. Beat until just combined. Set aside.
• Spray the pan with oil and then lay pineapple chunks in bottom of donut mold to cover the bottom of each donut.
• In a small frying pan, melt butter and add ¼ c brown sugar, let it caramelize and then pour evenly on top of pineapple.
• Pour batter on top and bake for 20 minutes, or until tops of donuts are set.
• Place a plate on top and then flip the plate and pan at the same time to release the donuts right side up on the plate! Enjoy these DELICIOUS treats!

Steps:

• Reserve 1 1/2 tablespoons pineapple syrup for glaze.
• To pineapple, add egg, biscuit mix, sugar and nutmeg; stir into stiff dough.
• Heat oil to 375 degrees F.
• Drop dough by teaspoonsful into hot oil; fry to golden brown, about 3 minutes, turning once.
• Remove with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels.
• Dip some of doughnuts into pineapple glaze, others in confectioners' sugar or cinnamon sugar.
• Serve warm.
• For glaze, combine confectioners' sugar and pineapple syrup; mix until smooth.
