Better Than Café Du Monde Beignets | New Orleans Beignet | Easy Beignet Recipe | Best French Donuts
This Summer we went to New Orleans, LA with my brother-in law and his family. It was a lot of fun!
All our friends told us we must try the beignets from Café Du Monde. Well well... We tasted them. (Being French, we are always very critical of things that are supposed to be French.) The beignets were okay. They were not as amazing as we thought they would be. We found the beignets from Café Beignet were way better, bigger, and fluffier than the ones from Café Du Monde. Just our personal French opinion! :)
Anyway, when we went back home, I wanted to see if I could make beignets myself. My sister in law Virginie, happened to have a recipe. So we made the recipe...3 times! We added ingredients and modified a few things from the original recipe to make it even better...
This recipe is the best beignet recipe so far, better than any store-bought beignets or from cafés we tasted out there.
You can bring New Orleans into your kitchen and enjoy the best beignets ever!
These beignets are soft, fluffy, airy, and AMAZING!! All our friends can testify! I promise, you won't be disappointed.
You've got to try Virginie's beignets. They are AMAZING!!!!
Bon appétit!
