Cafe Du Monde beignet recipe - New Orleans square donuts! by @adikosh_123 8½ cups/2 liters oil for frying Powdered sugar For 20–30 beignets: 2.2 pounds/1 kilogram all-purpose flour 3 tablespoons/50 grams fresh yeast, or 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon instant yeast ½ cup/100 grams sugar 2 large eggs 1 egg yolk 1 cup/240 milliliters lukewarm water 1½ cups/360 milliliters milk 3½ tablespoons/50 grams butter A pinch of salt In a stand mixer bowl, combine all the dough ingredients. Attach the dough hook and knead on low speed for about 8 minutes. Start at speed 1 and gradually increase to speed 2. The dough is ready when it separates from the sides of the bowl and becomes smooth and slightly sticky. Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover, and let rise at room temperature until doubled in size. Heat oil in a pot to 350–360°F (175–180°C). Once the dough has risen, transfer it to a floured surface. Lightly flour the top and roll the dough out to a thickness of ⅓–½ inch (1–1.5 cm). Cut into small squares. Fry the dough squares in the hot oil for a few minutes on each side until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain. Arrange on a serving plate and generously dust with powdered sugar. Optionally, serve with jam, pastry cream, or chocolate spread. Tip: Beignets are best enjoyed on the day they’re made, ideally close to frying time. Kneading takes about 8 minutes in a mixer; start on low speed and increase gradually.
