Ingredients

nonstick cooking spray
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons water
1 large egg, separated, divided
1 ½ teaspoons melted butter
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, or to taste

Directions

Preheat an air fryer to 370 degrees F (185 degrees C). Spray a 7-cavity silicone egg bite mold with nonstick spray.
Whisk flour, 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons white sugar, water, egg yolk, melted butter, baking powder, vanilla, and salt together in a large bowl until well combined.
Beat egg white in a small bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Fold egg white into batter. Scoop batter into the prepared mold with a small-hinged ice cream scoop. Place the mold into the air fryer basket.
Fry in the preheated air fryer for 10 minutes. Remove mold from the basket carefully; pop beignets out and flip over onto a parchment paper round.
Place parchment round with beignets back into the air fryer basket. Cook for an additional 4 minutes. Remove beignets from the air fryer basket and dust with confectioners' sugar.
