What are Beignets?

These easy pistachio beignets are like little pillows of heaven that hail from the heart of New Orleans. Imagine a square doughnut, but without the hole, fried to a golden brown perfection and generously dusted with powdered sugar. These delightful treats are light, airy, and have just the right amount of crispiness on the outside, while staying fluffy on the inside.

Perfect with a cup of coffee, especially the iconic Café au Lait, beignets are the ultimate comfort food for any time of day. Whether you’re strolling through the French Quarter or whipping up a batch at home, these sweet bites are sure to bring a smile to your face and a little powdered sugar to your nose.
