Recipe Description
This Classic Vegan Beignets recipe captures the essence of the traditional New Orleans favorite, while ensuring a delightful treat for those following a plant-based diet. The process begins with a simple, yet carefully crafted yeast dough, which rises to create the tender, airy texture that beignets are known for. Once the dough has achieved its perfect fluffiness, it is rolled out, cut into classic beignet shapes, and deep-fried to golden perfection. Dusted with a generous coating of powdered sugar, these beignets offer an irresistible blend of sweet, doughy goodness with every bite. In keeping with vegan principles, this recipe substitutes dairy and egg ingredients with vegan-friendly alternatives, ensuring that the indulgence is guilt-free. Ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a decadent dessert, these vegan beignets promise a melt-in-your-mouth experience that brings a taste of the French Quarter to your kitchen.
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup non-dairy milk
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
- Oil for frying
- Confectioners’ sugar for dusting
Steps:
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water with a pinch of sugar. Allow to sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
- Add the rest of the sugar, non-dairy milk, melted vegan butter, and salt. Mix well.
- Gradually add flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead until smooth.
- Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- On a floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into squares.
- Generously dust with confectioners’ sugar and serve immediately.
