Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter together until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep fryer or a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 5

    Fry Beignet Bites

    Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, carefully drop the batter into the hot oil, frying only a few at a time to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.

  3. 6

    Drain and Cool

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the beignet bites from the oil and let them drain on paper towels. Allow to cool slightly.

Serving

  1. 7

    Dust with Powdered Sugar

    While still warm, dust the beignet bites generously with powdered sugar before serving.

  2. 8

    Enjoy

    Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious beignet bites!
