Indulge in the irresistible charm of these Gluten-Free Beignet Pomme, a delightful twist on the classic French treat designed for those who embrace a gluten-free lifestyle. These crispy, golden fritters boast a light and fluffy texture, thanks to the perfect blend of gluten-free all-purpose flour and baking powder. Infused with the natural sweetness of diced apples and warm notes of cinnamon, every bite delivers a cozy burst of flavor. The batter comes together effortlessly with wholesome ingredients like unsweetened applesauce and a hint of vanilla, creating a delicate balance of sweetness and spice. Finished with a generous dusting of powdered sugar, these beignets are perfect for breakfast, dessert, or as a crowd-pleasing snack. Quick to prepare and fry, this recipe ensures a fresh, piping-hot batch every time, making it the ultimate gluten-free indulgence for any occasion.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and sugar. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add the applesauce, milk, and vanilla extract to the eggs and whisk until fully incorporated.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously to form a smooth batter.
Gently fold in the finely diced apples into the batter until they are evenly distributed.
In a deep-fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil to 180°C (350°F).
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the beignets in batches.
Fry each batch for about 3-4 minutes, or until they become golden brown and crisp, turning them halfway through for even cooking.
Once fried, remove the beignets with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
While the beignets are still warm, generously dust them with powdered sugar.
Serve your Gluten-Free Beignet Pomme fresh and enjoy their warm apple goodness!
