Small Batch Beignets (Bread Machine) image

All the beignet recipes I've seen so far make enough to serve an army. Here's one that makes beignets for three or four people, adapted for fast and easy prep. Exactly like the breathtakingly light and airy doughnuts I've enjoyed many times at Cafe du Monde.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 33m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup shortening
1 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry yeast
1 egg
3 cups flour

Steps:

  • Measure all your ingredients out and have everything ready to go.
  • Heat the shortening and water together until the shortening is melted and the whole mixture is very warm but not scalding hot. Pour into bread machine.
  • Turn machine on and quickly add the other ingredients in the order listed and allow the bread machine to knead the dough for the full dough cycle.
  • Remove dough from pan to a flour-dusted surface and roll thin. Cut into squares and fry in hot oil just long enough for them to golden brown.
  • Drain and serve sprinkled with powdered sugar.
  • Tip: Beignets puff up two inches thick or more, so you need at least a couple of inches of oil in your pan.

These beignets were a bit too oily for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I might try using less oil next time.

I love this recipe! The beignets are so easy to make, and they always turn out perfectly. I've even started experimenting with different flavors, like adding cinnamon or chocolate chips.

These beignets were a bit too dense for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I might try using a different bread machine setting next time.

I was so excited to try this recipe, but the beignets didn't turn out well. I think I might have used too much flour, because they were really dry.
