ini Vegan Beignet Recipe, also called French Beignets or New Orleans beignets, are vanilla bean-flavored pieces of fried dough, coated with powdered sugar. They are the most delicious desserts to dip into jam or chocolate espresso sauce. They taste like a donut and a churro at the same time, except they don’t contain any filling and are topped with powdered sugar instead of sugar.
Tahukah anda bahawa "donat” is a French word that means donuts and is a classic special treat French people bake and eat for the French carnival season?
As a French girl, I have been baking beignets with my grandma since I was 6. Classic beignets are not vegan because they are made with eggs and evaporated milk. But like many of my raised dough recipes using simple plant-based ingredients. I will show you how. Beignets are similar to my Penggoreng Udara Churros or Donat 2 Bahan.

arahan
- In a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of your stand mixer add lukewarm water, dry yeast, and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Cover it and set it aside for 5 minutes until bubbly and activated.
- Meanwhile, in another bowl, whisk the flour and salt. Set it aside.
- When the yeast is activated, add the remaining sugar, oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, and half of the flour.
- Using the dough hook attachment, start beating the dough and add the remaining flour gradually. Keep beating on medium speed for 3-4 minutes or until the dough is sticky but not wet. If wet, add up to 1/4 cup extra flour.
- Transfer the dough into an oiled bowl, film the bowl with plastic wrap tightly, and place an extra warm towel on the top.
- Set aside in a warm place for 2 hours until the dough doubles in size. It can be in full sun, in front of a heater or fireplace.
- Meanwhile, prepare a large wire rack, and cover it with absorbent paper. Set aside.
- Fill a bowl with powdered sugar. Set aside.
- Once the dough has risen, place it onto a floured surface and roll with a roller pin into a 0.2-inch rectangle (5mm) .
- Use a pizza cutter to cut into 2-inch (5 cm) by 1.5-inch (3.5cm) rectangles.
- Fill a non-stick pot with about 4 inches (10 cm) of vegetable oil, bring to medium-high heat until the oil bubbles and reaches 360°F – use a candy thermometer to check the temperature.
- Place 3 to 4 beignets at a time in the warm oil, cook until they puff and get golden on one side – about 2 minutes, then flip with a slotted spoon and an extra 1-2 minutes.
- When puffed and golden brown, use the slotted spoon to remove the beignets from the oil and transfer them to the prepared wire rack to cool and dust with powdered sugar.
Nota
Pemakanan
Bahan dan Pengganti

- Air suam – Use a kitchen or body thermometer to make sure your water is under 100°F (41°C) or it will decrease the yeast activity making the dough less fluffy.
- Gula pasir like caster sugar or cane sugar or even a refined-sugar-free option like unrefined cane sugar.
- Minyak canola – you can use light olive oil or melted vegan butter for the dough, but to fry the beignets, you must use a high smoke point oil like avocado oil.
- Susu badam or any dairy-free milk you love like soy milk or oat milk.
- Tepung serbaguna like cake flour or white spelt flour. For a gluten-free version, use my panduan penukaran bebas gluten.
- Garam to balance flavors.
To fry and serve the beignets
- High-Smoke Vegetable Oil – I always fry in avocado oil because of its high-smoke point, it won’t smoke so it’s a healthier choice.
- Gula serbuk – to coat the beignets.
Making Vegan Beignets

- Add lukewarm water, yeast, and half the sugar in a large bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer. Cover and set it aside until bubbly and foamy.

- When the yeast is ready, add canola oil milk, and vanilla extract. Stir to combine then add in flour, remaining sugar, and salt.
- Stir, then use the dough hook attachment to knead the dough for 3 to 4 minutes until soft, sticky, but not wet. If too wet, add extra flour.
- Transfer the dough to lightly greased bowl. Film with plastic wrap and place a warm towel on top of the bowl.

- Set aside for 1.5 hours to 2 hours or until it doubles in size, exactly like in a resipi brioche vegan.

- Then remove the plastic wrap and push the dough to remove air.

- Roll on a lightly floured surface with a roller pin. Then, use a pizza cutter, or sharp knife, to cut out the sides of the dough.

- Now, shape rectangles of about 1/2 inch (1.5cm) by 1 inch (3cm).
Frying Beignets
Frying in oil is the most authentic way to cook beignets. If you prefer your air fryer, place the beignets in a single layer in the air fryer and air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 5 to 6 minutes or until golden brown.
- Fill a non-stick pot with 4 inches (10 cm) of avocado oil. Warm it until it forms bubbles on the sides – it should be at about 360°F (180°C).
- Add 3 to 4 beignets at a time, cook them for 2 minutes per side until they puff, and get a nice golden brown color on both sides. Remove them from the hot oil carefully using a slotted spoon and release on a plate covered with absorbent paper towels to absorb the extra oil.
- After a few minutes, when they are still warm, place in a bowl and dust powdered sugar on top.

Petua Carine
- Fry in high-smoke point oil. This is not only better for you, but it produces no smoke and won’t over-fry the dough.
- Use soy milk for ultra-soft beignets. While any non-dairy milk works in this recipe. Using a higher protein milk add texture to the beignets making the dough fluffier and softer – less dry.
- Use fresh yeast. We often forget that yeast must be stored in the fridge and won’t last forever. Old yeast won’t raise dough and makes flat beignets.
- Proof yeast under 100°F or you will kill the yeast and the dough won’t raise resulting in hard fried dough.
- Serve with sauce for better flavors, serve with chocolate sauce, chocolate ganache, vegan lemon custard, caramel sauce, or jam.
Soalan Lazim
These beignets can be kept for 3 to 4 days in an airtight container. If left with some moisture, the sugar coating will turn sticky, so you can add a bit more before serving.
You can freeze them for up to 3 months. I recommend freezing them without the sugar coating, and only adding powdered sugar after they have been thawed.

Hi, I do not have a stand mixer. Would a regular hand mixer work.
Not really, but you can work the dough by hand which is the closest way to mimic a stand mixer.
hey Carine I like the bignettes but I can’t ear yeast so any suggestions for me? I have to ask this on all your recipes containing yeast.
This recipe needs yeast unfortunately, they won’t be pillowy or fluffy with baking powder.
Can these beignets be baked or cooked other than deep frying?
They wont puff as much, I do highly recommend frying them for best taste
Alternative to canola oil?
You can use any low flavor oil like light olive oil, avocado oil
Can these be made with GF flour instead?
I don’t think it will work I am sorry
