I love waking up with a sweet breakfast morning during the Thanksgiving and Xmas season. Whether it is a Dutch Baby, a simple set of waffles or these lovely Beignets. I know I don't need to travel to Café Du Monde at New Orleans to taste these Beignets, I can simply make these in my home kitchen. So can you! Beignet is actually a deep fried choux pastry which is popular in France, but somehow it found its way into New Orleans and eventually evolved into a donut served with icing sugar. Beignets are often served with café au lait, a French coffee with milk. Tho I am not a donut person, but this just blow me away. They are light, fluffy and crispy at the same time unlike the greasy, overly sweet and dense donuts. I love having these Beignets with my strawberry compote. You can of cos serve them as it is or with any homemade or store-bought high quality compote or jam. You can my homemade compote recipe here. I hope you can give this recipe a try and have breakfast in bed not just during the Thanksgiving or Xmas season, but on every other morning.

Steps to make to make Beignets

1. In a bowl, add in water and yeast. Stir to dissolve the yeast. Set aside for 5 mins. After 5 mins, the yeast mixture should become foamy.
2. Add in eggs and milk. Lightly whisk to combine well. In a large mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, salt and butter. Lightly stir to combine well. Create a well in the middle.
3. Add the yeast mixture into the well gradually while still mixing. Mix to combine well or until it comes together as a dough. Knead the dough inside the bowl until all the nooks and crannies of flour is kneaded into the dough, about 5 mins.
4. The dough should be very tacky. Transfer the dough out onto a working surface and continue kneading for another 5 to 8 mins until smooth and slightly tacky. It should pass the "window-pane" test. If the dough is too dry, add in water, 1 TBSP at a time. If the dough is too sticky, add in flour, 1 TBSP at a time.
5. Generously grease the bowl with butter.. Transfer the dough back to greased bowl. Cover with cling film and let rise for 2 hrs or until doubled in size. Punch down the dough to deflate the air.
6. Divide the dough into halves. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a rectangular shape with a thickness of about 1/4 inch thick.
7. Cover with a damp lint free kitchen towel and let it rise for 30 mins. It should have risen to about 1/2 inch thick and is light and fluffy. Using a pizza cutter, cut them into squares. Add oil into a dutch oven, about 2 inches in depth, over medium heat.
8. To check if the temperature of the oil is ready, place a wooden chopstick into the oil. If bubbles start to form, the temperature is ready for frying.* Gently drop the dough into the oil away from you. Deep fry until golden brown on both sides.
9. Remove from heat and drain off excess oil in a wire cooling rack or a plate lined with kitchen paper. Repeat the steps for the remaining dough. Transfer the beignets onto a serving plate. Lightly dust some icing sugar over the top. Serve with your favorite compote or jam.
