1-First Step: Heat 6 cups vegetable oil to 350°F in a dutch oven or cast iron pot. Use a candy thermometer to maintain consistent temperature.

2-Second Step: While oil heats, prepare biscuit dough by cutting a circle in the center of each biscuit using a cookie cutter or knife. Set the center cutouts aside.

3-Third Step: Combine 1½ teaspoons pumpkin spice and ½ cup granulated sugar in a shallow bowl, then mix until evenly speckled.

4-Fourth Step: Once oil reaches 350°F, fry donuts for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until golden. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding and keep the oil temperature steady.

5-Final Step: Let donuts cool for about one minute, then coat them in the pumpkin spice sugar while still warm so the coating sticks. Fry the center cutouts separately for homemade donut holes.
