I swear I accidentally make crack.
I saw someone post the same recipe recently and I have been craving them since, finally made them yesterday and OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUSNESS!! SOOOOO SOFT!!! My partner said it felt like he wasn't eating but breathing air due to how pillow-y they turned out.
DEFINITELY give this recipe and try https://www.africanbites.com/new-orleans-beignet/#recipe
The only things I did differently is that I only used 400g flour and I didn't melt the butter. I kneaded the butter into the dough after a dough ball formed from the initial wet ingredients.

those beignets sound like a cloud in edible form, nice touch with the butter technique, gotta try that out, thanks for sharing the link 🥐
Woowww 🤩
Beignet calories don’t count! Good job!
These are beignets, right?
Why did you do the butter differently from the recipe? What does that do? I am definitely going to try to make these!
Amazing
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?
Just licked my screen. I need one!
I love these!!! Looks soo good
You have to eat way more because of the air. This 51% air rounds off to 100%, and air has zero calories. (Based on a logic behind a convo with someone on a carb-free diet, who said she could eat as many tic-tacs as she wanted because the label said zero carbs per serving; I said no, the first ingredient is sugar, so that case of candy has carbs and calories. Consensus sided with her, bc food label truth, so it must be right.)
Saving cause I asked for a beignet recipe last week and never got a response. Excited to try these!
babe I’ve been crack-free for about 7 years but I’m willing to throw it all away for one of these
