Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 150 milliliters Skim milk
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 medium Apple (peeled and diced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the skim milk, honey, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring smoothly until a uniform batter forms.
In a small bowl, mix the diced apple with cinnamon powder and lemon juice to prevent browning and to add flavor. Set aside.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or a griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
For each beignet, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, making sure to leave enough space between each beignet.
Quickly add a spoonful of the apple mixture onto each beignet and gently fold the surrounding batter over the apples to enclose them.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the beignets are golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked beignets to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess moisture.
Sprinkle the beignets with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.
