Description

These Uncrustable Donuts are a fun and easy twist on a classic sandwich. By frying pre-made Uncrustable sandwiches in hot oil until golden and then coating them in a cinnamon sugar mixture, you get a sweet, crispy treat perfect for breakfast or a snack. This recipe uses simple ingredients and a quick frying method to transform everyday items into delightful donuts with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale

Oil

  • ½ gallon canola oil, peanut oil, or vegetable oil

Uncrustable Sandwiches

  • 20 Uncrustables, thawed (10 grape flavor, 10 strawberry flavor)

Cinnamon Sugar Coating

  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Heat the Oil: Add the oil to a dutch oven and set it over medium heat on the stovetop. Wait about five minutes for the oil to heat until it reaches 375-400°F, indicated by shimmering and dancing oil.
  2. Prepare Uncrustables: While the oil is heating, remove the Uncrustables from their packaging and have them ready for frying.
  3. Fry the Uncrustables: Carefully add 3-4 Uncrustables at a time into the hot oil. Fry each side for less than a minute, flipping them gently with a spider strainer to ensure both sides are golden brown and crispy.
  4. Drain Oil: Remove the fried Uncrustables from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
  5. Prepare Cinnamon Sugar: In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and ground cinnamon until fully combined.
  6. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: While the sandwiches are still warm, roll each one in the cinnamon sugar mixture until evenly coated on all sides. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure the oil temperature is between 375-400°F for crispiness without excessive greasiness.
  • Do not overcrowd the pot; fry in small batches to maintain oil temperature and even cooking.
  • Use a spider strainer or slotted spoon for safe flipping and removing.
  • Serve warm for best taste and texture.
  • Leftovers can be reheated in an oven to regain crispiness but are best enjoyed fresh.
