These were the homemade version of timbits in my house while I was growing up. Best eaten the night made, but just as wonderful the day after.

Quick & easy to make. You can have the batter whipped up in the amount of time it takes for the oil to heat. (I use a Fry Daddy.) We actually like them better after they sit for 5-6 hours rather than warm like most doughnuts I make.
