I'm from New Orleans so I grew up making these at home, and we'd drop them right from the fryer into a paper bag filled with powdered sugar and give them a good shake to totally coat them, lol. A nice dusting is okay but we were aiming for complete coverage! Anyway, I've only made them for my husband once, so you've inspired me to give 'em another go. :)
LOL! I thought about Café Du Monde while watching this... I live in the Atlanta area, but frequented New Orleans all the time before I had a kid and gears switched to places like Orlando - ha ha! I would always be amazed at the amount of powdered sugar they piled on and I never complained 😋

Oh. My. God! These were soooo good. They were super easy to make and they ended up like fluffy pillows dusted with sugar and all of the 20 beignets I made were devoured in one hour. I am definitely going to make this again. Srsly John's recipes turn out good literally every time. Thanks so much :)
@@peetasburntbread7919 I'm so sorry about your grandmother!! I hope you're okay! I found out someone very close to me has an eating disorder! I'm okay now and they are getting the best help so fingers crossed for a quick recovery 🤞
Just go ahead and make them. Its been a few weeks since I've found this and I'm about to make my 3rd batch. I make the batter and keep it in the refrigerator. When I'm ready to make a portion, I simply remove the right amount from the batter roughly 15 minutes before the time I'm going to cook them. Its perfect. My daughter loves hers with powdered sugar and syrup..
thank you very much. we made them for our granddaughter’s quinceañera and everyone loved them - especially the birthday girl! thank you for your kindness in sharing these recipes.
Made these this morning...please note if you refrigerated the dough bring the dough to room temp before frying otherwise these are dense with raw dough in the middle. I realized my mistake while frying the second batch and tasting the first. I should know better! This are fantastic when done right. The grandkids loved them rolled in cinnamon sugar.
A cup of tea is nice, but.what you really want is a cup of chicory coffee to go with your beignets. Cafe du Monde in New Orleans (where sitting on the patio drinking chicory coffee, eating beignets, and watching the world go by is a traveler’s bucket list item) sells it in bulk.
Alright... this is my first time here. I'm Brazilian and I clicked on this video just to check the pronounciation for Beignets , but I was caught by this man smile and the way he made extremely easy to follow this receipe... but what really made subscribe was his singing "sugar ... oh honey honey " Lol I used to love this song when I was a child. Now I 'm fan .
We just got back from New Orleans and my daughter asked me to try to make some beignets. I followed your recipe step by step, measuring exactly how you said and they are delicious!! Thank you so much!! 💓
What a coincidence!! I was literally searching up beignet recipes and preppy kitchen comes out with a video 2 hours after i look for a recipe!!! yaaaay
Omg I just made these. They are so delicious and easy to make just like u said. I took them a step further and made your pastry crème and filled them with that. You must try. I think my friends are going to get sick because they just keep on eating. I love watching you. Stay as sweet as you are.
All day yesterday I had been craving beignets because I used to live in Louisiana and when I would go to the mall I would always get a beignet. Problem is now that I live in Georgia once again I cannot just go buy a beignet anywhere so I'm so grateful that you posted this recipe. Thank you so very much from the bottom of my heart.
I tried this recipe and I'll just provide some notes about my experience. I felt the amount of yeast in this recipe should have been half. The dough tasted/smelled really yeasty and, when I looked at other recipes, they had half the amount. I ended up having to add a lot more flour than what was was listed. I used a scale to weigh out the flour, so I know it was accurate. When I fried the beignets, they were more like deep fried bread and very chewy. All in all, this recipe didn't work for me. However, I still love your channel and your videos are the absolute best! I could watch you for hours. The recipe that did work for me was from Todd Wilbur, who does Top Secret Restaurant Recipes. I followed his recipe exactly and ended up with perfect beignets.
I love all of the extra tips you provide to make our baking and cooking process easier. You don’t get that from most people who just tell you the ingredients and temperature needed to cook. Thank you. 🥳🌼
So cute, u r so good at this. They look so Delicious, and seem very easy to make. Go John, u r the best. Luv the luv u show when cooking. Those boys must just luv u so much. Thank u, watching u I have learned so much.
I've now made these 3 times...my 4 year old keeps requesting "benni-YAYS!" This recipe is excellent and very, very good. Be careful! They are addictive! Fantastic recipe, works perfectly! Thanks John!
Thank you so much for this recipe, made this for the time today (and first time making beignets) came out perfect! And I got so many compliments! So soft and pillowy and the best part so much easier than I thought they would be! I love your videos sir!!
Best way to go it immediately out of the oil put it In a brown bag of powdered sur . The whole thing will have a thick layer of sugar ONG BEST THING EVER Cafe du monde (in Louisiana) does that. It's litterally the best with some hot coffee
I made this today and it was a hit!! I just haf a hard time kneading the dough because I don't have a mixer but it was still a success!!! Thanks for the recipe!!🥰🥰
This recipe is fantastic ! It tasted amazing, the outside was kinda crispy and inside was nice and soft. I actually filled them with chocolate inside and it made it even better! However my dough was a little sticky so i had to add lots of flour later on. Overall good result, loved it👍
these beignets were so freaking delicious. i made them for my work colleagues and they DEAVOURED them. you sir will be seeing me on your channel more often.
I made these for the first time. The results were excellent. My mom said to make sure to hold onto this recipe because they tasted just like Cafe du Monde's beignets.
I love this recipe! What I love even more is that the song you sang is sooooo relatable! I'm not the only one that hums that song!!! My 4yo and 1yo love Sesame Street!!! ❤️
Its so neat and clean and simple. The dough doesnt swell up falling out of the bowl. It doesnt smell like beer. No ones crying or peeling overly sticky dough off everything. Sigh.
John you are my absolute favorite person and baker. Thank you for setting realistic goals in baking and also being real about eating your stuff in the baking. It's so comforting to be here
Thank you for sharing such an amazing recipe. This is stand out .........have made them twice and received so many compliments. Goes really well with a creamy Iced coffee. Next I want to try them with a biscoff spread filling

How do you stay so handsome and fit after baking such wonderful dishes? If I was in your place I would have eaten everything up and thrown my fitness goals out the window 😂
He’s got kids and a spouse to compete with for eating treats XD I bet he stays in shape blocking everyone in the house from eating the raw cookie doughs or batter lol
Your recipe for the dough makes it sound like the beignets don't need any sugar at all! They sound yummy. Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans serves them with sugar piled high with at least an inch and a half of sugar on top of the top layer. It is enough so if you inhale while taking a bite of one of the ones piled with sugar, you could asphyxiate yourself. Without the sugar, they aren't ( or weren't the last time I had them - decades ago) that sweet.
3/4 cups water
2 1/4 tsp yeast
1/2 cups sugar
3 3/4 flour
1tsp salt
1/2 milk
2 tsp vanilla
1 egg
3 tsbp butter

Another thing you can do with your beignets after they’re done is drizzle them with honey like in the Princess and the Frog movie
"I'm gonna need about 500 MaN cAtChInG beignets for ma ball tonight"
That sounds anaaazing 🤩 Thanks!
@@amberowl1397 I love that movie 🍿
I will have to try them with honey. I didn’t like them when I first tried them because I guess I was expecting more, but adding honey sounds divine!!
Yah I was thinking about it that it was in the princess and the Frog movie lol
Ok but are these beignets gonna catch me a man 😂
