J’s Biscuit Beignets
Otherwise known as my favorite breakfast.
- One 12-oz. can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
- Vegetable oil
- powdered sugar
- Separate biscuits into individual rounds, and cut into quarters. Pour whole container of oil into the deepest saucepan you have (or as much as will fit with about 2 inches left from the top). Drop in biscuits and fry until golden brown and float to the top (We can fit in four at a time in our saucepan). Drain on paper towels, and dust generously with powdered sugar. Serve immediately.
My Opinion:
As I previously mentioned, this is one of my most favorite breakfasts. It is super easy to make and clean up (so long as you don’t get powdered sugar everywhere). J and I have found we can reuse the vegetable oil up to four times before we need a new bottle.

I’ll have to try this! I love beignets, but have only had them in New Orleans!
Danielle,
Let me know how it turns out!

I have seen Guy Fieri make these on Guy’s Big Bite – nice to know they taste as good as they look on TV! He shakes them in a bag with cinnamon sugar after they’ve drained on the paper towels and cooled a little…
Amy,
I haven’t tried them with cinnamon and sugar, I may have to next time!
