Method
Dough Preparation
- 1
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- 2
Combine Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. Melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly before adding it to the wet mixture.
- 3
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly lumpy.
- 4
Chill Dough
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.
Frying
- 5
Heat Oil
In a deep pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature.
- 6
Shape Beignets
Once the dough has chilled, use a spoon or small ice cream scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pot, as this can lower the oil temperature.
- 7
Fry Beignets
Fry the beignets for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to turn them gently.
