These Uncrustables Donuts are the latest trending easy TikTok recipe made using your favorite flavor of Uncrustables sandwiches that have been deep-fried and tossed in cinnamon sugar for the easiest jelly donut you'll ever make!

Ingredients  

  • vegetable oil for frying
  • 6 Uncrustables thawed, any flavor
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Fill a heavy bottomed pan or dutch oven with 1½ inches of vegetable oil (or other frying oil of choice) and heat over high heat until it reaches 375°F when tested with a kitchen thermometer. Reduce heat to medium low once it reaches temp.
  • Meanwhile, use a cupcake corer or 1-inch circular cookie cutter to cut a hole in the center of each of the thawed uncrustables.
  • Use tongs to drop the uncrustables into the hot oil and cook each side for 10 to 12 seconds. Transfer cooked donuts to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon until evenly combined then toss the fried donuts in the cinnamon sugar mixture making sure to work them side to side so the middle gets coated. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Uncrustables thaw really quickly and should be ready to cut 10 to 15 minutes after removing from the refrigerator.
  • This recipe is really easy to scale. The recipe can make 6 to 12 before needing to increase the sugar or change out the oil.
  • The centers of the donuts do not need to be pinched back together, they don't really leak. But some peanut butter or jelly will get in the oil and after about 12 donuts you'll want to change it out.
  • I would only cook 2 to 3 at a time since they cook really fast and you don't want them to burn while you're adding or flipping the others. Since they cook so fast it will only take you a couple of minutes to cook all of them even in small batches.
