Great recipe. Will be trying it soon.


Ohhh my! I've heard about the beignets from CDM from my friend in New Orleans. Must really be a delight...--Kn0x--


Sounds great!


Excellent! :)


I've made beignets many times and I've eaten them at the Cafe DuMonde several times and they are delicious. Great post - thanks so much!


Thanks for the invite. I was at Cafe Du Monde a year ago, love New Orleans. I look forward to trying several of your recipes.


Well, I've never been to New Orleans and I've never tried a beignets but your recipe looks very tempting!!! This will be a first for me and I'm looking forward to making them very soon. Thank you for sharing this "5" fork recipe!


Hi fellow Canadian girl!
I have never made doughnuts before, but these beignets sound really good. Question, do you need to heat any of the ingredients other than the water for mixing the yeast into? Hope to try these soon. Thanks
Betty
