1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (any brand) 1 quart vegetable oil 1 cup sifted confectioners' sugar 3 to 4 tablespoons maple syrup Clean pop bottle lid Small mixing bowl Mixing spoon Heavy pan for deep frying Paper towels for draining Serving dish Cut centers out of biscuits with clean pop bottle lid. Save centers and fry seperately from doughnuts. In a small mixing bowl, mix together powdered sugar and maple syrup until no longer lumpy. Set aside. In heavy pan or deep fryer, fry two to three doughnuts at a time until golden brown; turn and fry second side until golden brown. Remove from oil and place on paper towel to get off excess grease.  Temp should be about 375 for best results. Immediately dip in maple glaze. Put on serving dish and serve immediately.  OR as an alternative, just coat them in sugar and enjoy.  Couldn't get much simpler than that!
