Beignets

March 26, 2010 | 7 Comments »

This morning I went for my usual morning walk/jog bright and early in the morning. While walking past one of the gas stations I smelled doughnuts. Apparently the place to get doughnuts around these parts is the local gas stations. I’ll admit, it’s a little weird, but they did smell good. So when I came home I looked up a recipe for beignets and whipped up a batch. Probably not the best thing to eat after a workout, but not to worry. I didn’t eat more than one. I mean two. I didn’t eat more than two.

They don’t look so pretty, but I assure you they tasted great. I really need to get started on equipping my new kitchen with all the coolest gadgets. Maybe then my beignets will be perfectly shaped. Not that they’re supposed to be round anyway. Aren’t they typically square? Every single vegan version I’ve seen have been round. I thought they were cute so I just went with it.

Also, Ethan gives them two thumbs up.
