When I was pregnant, I craved them after every workout. Fortunately, there was a great beignet place down the street from my gym. We all have our vices. Thank you for this authentic recipe. I would never waste my time or calories on the box mixes, so I am thankful for your posted recipe which is the real deal. I am such a fan of the beignet!

It's been years since I've made my way down to the French Quarter but after seeing a few challenge shows on the food network featuring beignets, I was craving them. The ones I remember are the golden delicious puffy rectangles of goodness, not the doughnut hole fritters I've seen on TV lately. YOUR RECIPE ROCKS! Thanks to you, we have a whole family of true beignet fanatics!! One little tip: I love the look of the piles of powdered sugar pictured but when preparing for a family, you can go old school and toss them gently in a paper bag with the sugar. It gives an even coating like powdered doughnuts and is super quick. Thanks again! Thanks so much for posting this delicious recipe.

I made some beignets today for Easter and I used this recipe, I added just a pinch more of granulated sugar. The recipe is sooo good my family loved them , my father who is from Louisiana said that they tasted like they were mad in New Orleans. This recipe is the best by far. OMG.

And FYI, it works equally well without eggs, if someone has an allergy. They turn out fluffier - more like Krispy Kremes than beignets, but quite good. Great recipe!
