Ingredients
-
1 package active dry yeast
-
½ cup warm water (110 degrees F (43 degrees C))
-
½ cup evaporated milk
-
½ cup white sugar
-
1 egg, beaten
-
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
3 cups all-purpose flour
-
vegetable oil for frying
Directions
-
Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
-
Add milk, sugar, egg, oil, vanilla extract, and salt to the yeast. Vigorously beat in flour. Mix until a sticky dough forms.
-
Divide dough into quarters. Place 1 portion on a heavily floured surface. Roll to about 1/8-inch thickness using a well floured rolling pin. Cut into 2-inch squares. Repeat with remaining 3 portions.
-
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 370 degrees F (188 degrees C). Fry beignets, a few at a time, until they puff and rise to the top, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brown the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Editor's Note:
We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.
