This is a quick recipe for beignets without yeast that do not require rolling or cutting. These are delicious served with chocolate sauce and powdered sugar, cinnamon-sugar, honey, or any other topping that you might use for donuts or waffles.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine flour, water, milk, egg, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix until smooth.

  2. 2

    Pour oil into a deep skillet or pot and heat over medium-high heat to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C).

  3. 3

    Drop spoonfuls of batter into hot oil. Fry, turning once, until they rise to the surface and turn golden brown and puffy, 3 to 5 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.
