Directions
Cinnamon and Sugar Beignets,I found this recipe in “Out to Brunch – At Mildred Pierce Restaurant” Beignets are a french doughnut without the holes. These are best served while still warm.,They are also great with lemon cest insted of cinnamon in the dough an only sugar outside,
Many thanks for a great recipe!,used our ABM to prep the dough. Refrigerating the dough made working with it much, much easier. (I also oiled the bowl first that held the dough and that also helped.) But I’ll be honest: I think I prefer the non-yeast version of beignets but my review should in no way be considered negative or stop anyone from trying this recipe. Let me try another beignet again tomorrow morning *with coffee* … Made for ZWT 9.
