WIW: Doughnut Chips

1 C. granulated sugar

1 T. cinnamon

12 leftover doughnuts (such as plain, glazed or cake doughnuts; nothing with a thick frosting)

 

Preheat a waffle iron on high. In a small bowl, mix the sugar with the cinnamon to combine. Cut each of the doughnuts in half. Working in batches, place 2 or 3 halved doughnuts in the waffle iron and press firmly to close. Cook for 30 to 45 seconds. Remove the doughnuts from the waffle iron and transfer to a large plate. Press a heavy skillet on top of the waffled doughnuts for 5 to 10 seconds. Transfer the chips to the cinnamon sugar and toss to coat. The doughnuts will get crispy as they cool. Repeat with the remaining doughnuts. Cool completely before serving.
