Number Of Ingredients 10

cooking spray
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
⅛ cup water
1 large egg, separated
1 ½ teaspoons melted butter
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat air fryer to 370 degrees F (185 degrees C). Spray a silicone egg-bite mold with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Whisk flour, sugar, water, egg yolk, butter, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir to combine.
  • Beat egg white in a small bowl using an electric hand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Fold into batter. Add batter to the prepared mold using a small hinged ice cream scoop.
  • Place filled silicone mold into the basket of the air fryer.
  • Fry in the preheated air fryer for 10 minutes. Remove mold from the basket carefully; pop beignets out and flip over onto a parchment paper round.
  • Place parchment round with beignets back into the air fryer basket. Cook for an additional 4 minutes. Remove beignets from the air fryer basket and dust with confectioners' sugar.
