1
Combine lukewarm milk with baker's yeast and a little sugar in a bowl, stirring to dissolve and activate the yeast.
2
Combine flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor. Add orange blossom water for flavoring.
3
Crack and whisk two eggs, then combine with the yeast mixture.
4
Pour the liquid ingredients into the food processor with the dry ingredients, and knead on low speed until smooth. The dough will be sticky, which is normal.
5
Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a tea towel and let it rise for about 30 minutes until it is filled with small air bubbles.
6
Heat oil to 180°C. Use an ice cream scoop or spoon to portion dough balls and carefully place each into the hot oil.
7
The beignets will turn over by themselves. Cook for about 1 to 1.5 minutes until they achieve a nice golden color, helping them flip if needed.
8
Remove the beignets from the oil using a slotted spoon and place on absorbent paper to drain excess oil.
9
Dust the warm beignets generously with powdered sugar or granulated sugar, and serve while still warm.
