I am walking down memory lane on this one.
0:07
When Bubba and I were growing up,
0:09
my brother Bubba and I, at night, we'd be watching TV
0:13
on that small little black and white TV, portable TV.
0:18
And Bubba and I would want something that's sweet.
0:22
And if Mama didn't have a cake or banana pudding made,
0:26
we would have her make us donuts.
0:32
And they're so good and so tasty,
0:34
especially while they're hot, y'all.
0:37
So all you do is take your canned biscuits
0:42
and just kinda do 'em out.
0:46
Mama didn't have a cookie cutter like this,
0:51
but she would just do 'em out just like this.
0:56
And of course, we're waiting for our grease to get hot.
0:58
We want it to get to about 350.
1:01
Now, if you wanted to make it perfect, you could use
1:05
the donut hole maker and then fry these
1:09
'cause everybody loves the center.
1:13
Let's see, I'll take this one out a little bit more.
1:17
Make it perfect like the other one.
1:22
And like I said, these things are so easy
1:25
and quick to make, y'all.
1:28
If your grease is right, about two minutes per side.
1:34
I mean, it's really fast and easy.
1:46
Ooh, I love those little donut holes.
1:52
Now, Mama always put ours,
1:56
when she made 'em, she'd always put 'em in a paper sack
2:04
So you can use either kind of sugar you want,
2:08
you can use granulated or you can use powder.
2:13
Well, I do just like my Mama did, I use powdered sugar.
2:18
But if you wanted to get a little flavor in there,
2:22
you can mix some cinnamon in with your,
2:26
I'm gonna check my grease, y'all and see.
2:31
I think it's about to get there.
2:34
Just dropping a few droplets of water
2:38
will kind of let me know.
2:42
So what was I saying, Eddie?
2:45
I can't remember where I.
2:47
- [Eddie] You were talking about adding different spices.
2:50
- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
3:00
And like I said, this isn't like a Krispy Kreme,
3:03
which is my very favorite.
3:09
My very favorite donut.
3:10
Although I love those croissant donuts too.
3:14
But they're in the shape of a croissant,
3:18
but they put like that glaze on.
3:20
You know what I'm talking about, Eddie?
3:23
Oh, honey hush, it's so good.
3:26
All right, I'm gonna drop one there
3:29
and test the water or test the oil.
3:33
I believe it could come up just a little bit more.
3:43
Yeah, it's not near about ready.
3:46
I had to bring out my thermometer, y'all,
3:48
'cause I said, this grease is not even close.
4:02
Like I said, about two minutes per side.
4:05
The one that I dropped in too soon, there it is.
4:14
And it just, it's still good.
4:15
It just took it a little longer to cook.
4:33
Oh yeah, look at that.
4:36
This oil is just right.
4:45
Chubby Bubby and I'll be eating donuts
4:49
in about two minutes, y'all.
4:58
We used to go to a little restaurant down in Panama City
5:03
and they took the canned biscuits
5:07
and they dropped 'em down in the deep fryer
5:12
and serve it with their shrimp basket, oyster basket,
5:15
whatever you were getting.
5:21
So I think the moral of that story is anything fried's good.
5:50
And these are not like hush puppies.
5:52
If you don't turn a hush puppy right on time,
5:56
you can't ever get the backside
5:58
of that hush puppy to turn over.
6:01
I'm just gonna put these to drain a second
6:11
And like I said, now Mama used a little brown paper bag,
6:16
but you don't see those anymore.
6:20
Everything's kind of plastic now.
6:29
Okie doke, I got my powdered sugar.
6:35
They're hot donuts, y'all.
6:41
Give 'em a shake, shake, shake.
6:55
See how quick you can do these?
6:59
And your children are going to think you just this genius.
7:03
Mommy, how did you get hot donuts so quick?
7:09
- Because Mommies know how to do everything, don't we?
7:13
Or at least they think we do.
7:15
- [Theresa] Mm hmm, mine do.
7:22
I think they may have changed their opinion, I don't know.
7:26
So I'm gonna turn this fire off.
7:33
- [Theresa] Well, I was waiting for you.
7:34
- No, I'm the cooker.
7:37
- [Theresa] Ooh, they're hot.
7:42
That one needs dunking a second time.
7:46
- [Theresa] These are delicious.
7:54
Okay, last one out's a rotten egg.
8:00
Look at that face, Eddie.
8:02
You missing that face.
8:10
It was like something else was going on besides a donut.
8:18
- [Theresa] This is childhood.
8:20
- [Theresa] I feel like a kid.
8:23
Okay, I've stood it long enough.
8:25
- [Theresa] Be careful, they're hot.
8:32
And Bubba and I drink a quart of milk with them.
8:43
For all the childhood memories.
