Beignets aux Pommes Recette Facile et Rapide

Ingredients

• 3 pieces Golden Apples (peeled, cored, sliced about 1 cm thick)
• 250 ml Milk (room temperature)
• 50 g Granulated Sugar
• 5 g Baking Powder (half a sachet)
• 2 pieces Eggs (large, at room temperature)
• 250 g All-Purpose Flour (sifted, fluid flour)
• 1 pinch Salt
• 5 ml Orange Blossom Water (optional, for aroma)
• 20 g Powdered Sugar (for dusting)
• 1 liter Vegetable Oil (neutral oil for deep frying)

Instructions

1. Make batter

   In a mixing bowl combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt. Whisk together, then add the eggs, milk gradually and the orange blossom water, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

   Time: PT5M

2. Rest batter

   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the batter rest at room temperature for about 1 hour. This relaxes the gluten and yields a lighter beignet.

   Time: PT1H

3. Slice apples

   Peel, core and slice the apples into rounds about 1 cm thick. Keep the slices uniform so they cook evenly.

   Time: PT5M

4. Heat oil

   Pour the vegetable oil into the pan to a depth of about 2 cm. Heat it to 180°C (350°F) using a thermometer.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 180°C

5. Fry apple rings (first side)

   Dip each apple slice into the batter, letting excess drip off, then carefully place it in the hot oil. Fry for about 2 minutes until the bottom is golden.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 180°C

6. Fry second side

   Turn the apple rings and fry the other side for another 2 minutes, until both sides are golden and the apple is tender.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 180°C

7. Drain and dust

   Remove the beignets with a slotted spoon, place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain, then sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar while still warm.

   Time: PT2M

8. Serve

   Serve the apple beignets warm as a snack or dessert. They are excellent on their own or with a drizzle of honey or caramel sauce.
