These easy no-yeast beignets are a quick and delicious treat that can be made without the need for yeast or rising time. They are perfect for breakfast or as a sweet snack. The dough comes together in minutes, and the frying process is simple. Dust them with powdered sugar for an authentic beignet experience!
Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour. 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. 1 tablespoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup milk. 1/4 cup water. 1 large egg. 2 tablespoons melted butter. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Vegetable oil for frying. Powdered sugar for dusting.
Instructions: In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, water, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms. Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot to 350F 175C. Drop spoonfuls of the dough into the hot oil, and fry until they are golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the beignets from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate. Dust the beignets with powdered sugar while they are still warm. Serve the no-yeast beignets warm and enjoy!
