Recreating Princess Tiana's Beignets | Good Times With Jen

Princess & The Frog fans, this one's for you. Jen's here to teach you how to recreate Tiana's heavenly, addicting beignets.
Ingredients-
1 ¼ tsp active dry yeast
¼ cup sugar
¾ cup warm water
½ cup evaporated milk
1 egg, beaten
3 cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp salt
2 tbsp shortening
Honey
Powdered sugar
Steps-
In a large bowl, combine warm water (about 110-115°F), yeast, and sugar. Allow to bloom and become foamy for about 10-12 minutes.
Whisk in evaporated milk and egg. Then whisk in one-third of the flour and salt. Switch to a spoon and mix in the shortening and the rest of the flour just until crumbly.
Dump out the mixture onto a board. Knead with your hands just until mostly smooth. Be careful not to over-knead. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, allow to rise until doubled in size.
In a cast iron skillet or deep dryer, heat a neutral cooking oil to 380°F. Meanwhile, transfer dough to a well-floured surface and roll out until ¼ inch thick. Square off the edges with knife or pastry cutter and cut dough into squares.
Fry a few squares at a time, while basting to tops with the hot oil. Flip to the other side and repeat. Continue flipping over several times until golden brown. Drain on a rack, brown paper bag, or paper towel, and continue frying the rest.
Drizzle with honey and cover with powdered sugar and serve immediately.

[@keahibaby808]

“By the dog, I mean my fat ass” omg that made my day 😂 talk about relatable

[@newcheveu]

I need these beignets in my life before I stop eating sweets for a month

[@EntinludeX]

Honey, you're literally the only reason I'm still on this channel! You got your own??

[@kirihehm82]

She does! Check out kzbin.info

[@marim0y]

She sure does! Just Eat Life. I love it.

[@EntinludeX]

marim0y that was the quickest sub and notification Bell I ever clicked and rang

[@marim0y]

Lude Crestfallen it's worth it. She's awesome. Leo's adorable, too. One of the most adorable food couples on KZbin.

[@lucapeyrefitte6899]

Giri Hehm so is that her channel because if it is then I'll unsubscribe from here and go there

[@the.paige.turner]

You did my hometown good with your “man-catchin’ beignets!” (Like Lottie says in the movie!) ♥️❤️♥️ They look delicious, Jen!

[@TinaKattheSnack]

Jen is the only reason I still watch this channel!

[@marim0y]

Tina Cardona-Pinto right? They got rid of everyone else I liked. I hope Frankie's World or Alice in Paris come back. I'm running out of reasons to stay. I wonder if they're working on a rebranding or something. 🤷🏽‍♀️Even their post schedule is a little more inconsistent than normal.

[@SandKitchen]

Your excitement as you make these is contagious!

[@oabuseer]

CUTEST ASS FROG THERE EVER WAS

[@CarGirl713]

I grew up in New Orleans and I've never heard of anyone putting honey on beignets until I saw the Princess and the Frog. It might not be the most traditional way to do them, but I definitely want to try it!

[@darionwilson3666]

CarGirl713 I’ve never had one and want one soooooi bad. Ever since I seen them in princess and the frog I wanted them 😩

[@hiholly4131]

May I ask what is the traditional way? They look sooo delicious and wanna try one, but I'm not a fan of honey.

[@nevaehboynton2368]

I tried it it’s so good 😊

[@CarGirl713]

@@hiholly4131 traditionally it's just served with a giant mound of powdered sugar on top

[@CH-hv3gh]

[@julianahilliard]

Beignets are the best!! Especially if you get them in New Orleans. #PerksOfHavingFamilyInLouisiana I’ve never seen anyone put honey on them tho. Just LOTS of powdered sugar

[@bloodemocat]

You are Soooo beautiful!!! 💞

[@elizamuzaffar1353]

JEN I LOVE YOU GIRL

[@Gertrude-Intrudes]

You're so cute and that looks so goooood.

[@ashley-jy4xo]

[@egglayingbunnies]

Evaporated milk has more milk flavor and less water

[@beautifuldiamond3253]

Omg she's so pretty she looks like one of the fairies from Tinkerbell

[@magdalenacrunchygoo]

I'm here for jen

[@maiiyzaguirre8581]

here in argentina we call this torta frita!! and we only eat them salty or with some granulated sugar on top

[@avigailjacinto6226]

y'all tianas beignets looked like the best damn thing in the world in the movie

[@randyw6623]

Great video!!

[@treatsandtravels06]

I see the shortening on the list of ingredients and on the table but was it added to the dough mixture ? Ok I seen it is in the recipe :)

[@120nhy]

the hardest part of making this is "wait for 2 hour" 😭

[@diAhhA]

You’re the only one who didn’t forget the honey!

[@888kawehi]

Your adorABLE I had to sub

[@An-Old-Dude]

She put honey on them in the movie? As a Louisianian, all we normally put on them is powdered sugar. The honey threw me off. That's more a sopapilla topping.

[@kellygreengables3936]

Stephen Nesbit Can you explain the difference please?

[@juliettex88]

Stephen Nesbit She did put honey on them

[@jannahcaoimhe9252]

she put honey near the beginning of the movie

[@jordanrini7325]

I’m from New Orleans as well, and yes she put honey on them in the movie. I remember seeing the movie and being a little confused because I had never heard of anyone down here putting honey (in fact, my great great grandma and her brothers were the owners of the first Café Du Monde down in New Orleans) so I’m not used the seeing that🤷🏻‍♀️

[@jasonchampagne6825]

Exactly. I have been to Café Du Monde and Morning Call more times than I can count. I have NEVER seen anyone put honey on a beignet. Thanks Disney, honey on beignets is almost as bad as kale in gumbo.

[@ellinilssonekstrom9823]

Loopvveeee ittt

[@leahraenavasie2460]

Haha!!! Awesome. 😁❤🤘

[@emmt9570]

Great video! Just to clarify, no second rise after cutting??

[@user-kh9ki3kq8m]

Emm T yes!! If you don’t let them rise they’ll be dense and doughy. Even if it’s not in the recipe it’s definitely a good idea to proof them again.

[@jasminedeaa.1997]

Imaa need about 500 of your man catching beignets

[@candelarubi1141]

In Argentina we call those TORTA FRITAS they are literaly the same and we also eat them with sugar

[@honeyalva1677]

can you use buttermilk if you don’t have any regular or evaporated milk!

[@usagilamperouge]

Gurl I love you

[@kellydoll9335]

I love you so god damn much 😘

[@MrScooter0921]

Just curious what do u do with all the oil after?

[@sittiemaimonahabuat4429]

i love jen❤❤❤

[@kodahaha]

Easier version: get you a can of buttermilk biscuits, seperate em like you would a cooked biscuit, then add 3 hersheys kisses to the middle, seal em up, and deep fry em up till theyre a dark golden brown. I loved chocolate for breakfast and this is what my mom would make when she didn't wanna fool around with chocolate gravy and biscuits. I dust mine with confectioner's sugar, but my mom swears by a milk+powder sugar glaze

[@daalelli]

Oh man. Chocolate gravy and biscuits is my favorite!

[@kaitlinski493]

Just found this channel, and I love it! 😍

[@KPLaiaacona]

i see jen i click!

[@alejandrasolis8469]

Can I still continue if my yeast didn’t rise??

[@hibitchh7882]

Your my favorite 💞💞

[@teresadelgado5284]

Your so adorable!!🤗😉😋

[@ravensissalium5937]

I’m doing this nowwwww
