Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.33 cup Granulated erythritol
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup Powdered erythritol
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, granulated erythritol, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk together until well blended.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add the unsweetened almond milk and vanilla extract and mix well.
Step 3
Melt the butter in a microwave or on the stovetop until it is fully melted but not hot. Stir the melted butter into the wet ingredients.
Step 4
Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously to form a thick batter.
Step 5
Heat the coconut oil in a deep saucepan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Use enough oil to submerge the beignets.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop, carefully drop small amounts of batter into the hot oil. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
Step 7
Fry the beignets for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked beignets and drain on paper towels.
Step 8
Allow the beignets to cool slightly, then dust them with powdered erythritol before serving.
Step 9
Serve the low carb mini beignets warm, and enjoy!
