Crispin Cider Beignets With Rich Caramel Sauce Recipes

APPLE CIDER BEIGNET RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the beignets: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, bring the apple cider to a boil, then cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and let cool.
• In a liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the water, granulated sugar, and yeast. 3. Let sit for 10 minutes, until foamy.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the reduced apple cider, eggs, salt, 2 teaspoons apple pie spice, the evaporated milk, and melted butter.
• Add the yeast mixture to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
• Add half of the flour and stir with a wooden spoon to incorporate. Add the remaining flour and stir until the dough comes together in a ball.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth, about 10 minutes.
• Grease a clean large bowl with nonstick spray and place the dough in the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for at least 2 hours, until the dough has doubled in size.
• In a small mixing bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and remaining tablespoon of apple pie spice. Set aside.
• Make the caramel: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, bring the apple cider to a boil and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
• Add the brown sugar to the reduced cider and continue cooking until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture turns a deep amber color, about 5 minutes.
• Add the heavy cream and whisk quickly to incorporate. Gradually add the cubed butter and whisk to melt completely. Whisk in the salt, then remove the pot from the heat. Cover with a lid to keep warm until ready to serve.
• In a large pot, heat the canola oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C). Place a wire rack over a baking sheet and set nearby.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 12-inch (30 cm) square. Cut the dough into 36 2-inch (5 cm) squares.
• Working in batches, fry the dough squares in the hot oil until light golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to the wire rack and immediately dust with the apple pie spice sugar.
• Serve the beignets warm with the cider caramel alongside for dipping.
• Enjoy!

BEIGNETS WITH ROSEMARY CARAMEL AND LOCAL HONEY

Steps:

• Beignets: In a medium pot, add the first 5 ingredients and bring to a boil over medium heat. At this point, add in the flour and stir vigorously with a spoon. Continue to cook until the dough becomes a solid mass and begins to pull away from the sides of the pot, about 3 to 5 minutes. Switch off the heat, mix in the vanilla extract and add in the eggs, 1 at a time, incorporating each egg before adding in the next.*
• The resulting pastry should be flexible and soft, but firm enough to hold its shape. Set it aside covered with plastic for 5 minutes. When ready to make the pastries, fill a deep skillet or deep-fryer 2/3 full of oil and heat it to 300 to 325 degrees F. Form the dough into doughnut hole shapes. Fry the beignets, in batches, until golden brown, about 3 to 6 minutes being sure not crowd them. Remove them from the oil to a cooling rack.
• Caramel: Put the rosemary and water into a small pot and simmer over medium heat until the rosemary is limp, about 3 to 6 minutes. Strain the liquid, discarding the rosemary, and pour it back into the pot. (Chef's Note: If this liquid is not 1/4 cup exactly, add water.) Add in the sugar and corn syrup. Bring the ingredients to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the syrup thickens. Stir in the heavy cream and butter and switch off the heat. Pour into a serving bowl and reserve for the beignets.
• Arrange the beignets on a serving platter and dust with powdered sugar. Serve with the honey and Rosemary Caramel in small bowls.

APPLE CIDER BEIGNETS WITH BUTTER-RUM CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Heat sugar in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring with a fork to heat sugar evenly, until it starts to melt, then stop stirring and cook, swirling skillet occasionally so sugar melts evenly, until it is dark amber. Stir in butter, water, rum, vinegar, and a pinch of salt (caramel will harden and steam vigorously) and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until caramel has dissolved. Add cream and bring to a boil, stirring, then remove from heat. Cool to warm.
• Make beignets:
• Preheat oven to 250°F with rack in middle. Set a cooling rack in a large shallow baking pan.
• Heat 2 inches oil in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat to 375°F.
• Meanwhile, peel apples and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Cut out core with cutter, then pat apple rings dry.
• Put 1 1/4 cups flour in a large shallow bowl and make a well in center. Beat egg in a small bowl with a fork, then stir in cider and 1 tablespoon oil and pour into well. Stir with fork until a lumpy batter forms.
• Working in batches of 3 or 4, dredge apple rings in remaining 1/2 cup flour, shaking off excess, then dip in batter to coat, letting excess drip off, and fry, gently turning over once with a slotted spoon, until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes total per batch. Transfer to rack and keep warm in oven. Return oil to 375°F between batches.
• Just before serving, dust warm beignets with confectioners sugar. Stir sauce, then serve on the side.

MOCHA SALTED CARAMEL BEIGNETS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the beignet dough: In a 4-cup measuring cup, whisk together 1½ cups of milk, the sugar, and yeast. Set in a warm place for 10 minutes, until the yeast blooms and the mixture is foamy.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, kosher salt, cinnamon, and 6 tablespoons cocoa powder.
• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of milk and the instant espresso powder until the espresso is dissolved.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
• Add the egg mixture and the espresso-milk mixture to the yeast mixture and whisk until combined.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until it comes together and is no longer sticky, about 10 minutes. Transfer the dough to a clean large bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let proof in a warm place until doubled in size, about 2 hours. Alternatively, transfer the dough to the refrigerator and let proof slowly overnight, or for up to 24 hours.
• While the dough proofs, make the salted caramel: Add the sugar to a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally, but not stirring, until it starts to turn amber brown, 4-5 minutes. Add the butter and whisk until incorporated, 1-2 minutes. Slowly drizzle in the cream and whisk to combine. Boil for 1 minute, then remove the pot from the heat. Whisk in the vanilla and flaky salt. Transfer to an airtight container, straining through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps, if needed, then refrigerate to thicken and cool completely before using, about 1 hour.
• Fry the beignets: Heat the peanut oil in a 6-quart pot over medium-high heat to 360°F (182°C). Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set a wire rack on top.
• In a small bowl, sift together the powdered sugar and remaining 2 tablespoons cocoa powder.
• Turn the beignet dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll out to a 12-inch square, about ¼-inch-thick. Trim the edges, then cut into 16 3-inch squares, discarding any scraps.
• Working 3-4 at a time, fry the beignets in the hot oil for 2-3 minutes on each side, until slightly darker in color around the edges. Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon or spider and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Immediately dust with the powdered sugar mixture, then repeat with the remaining beignets.
• Transfer the salted caramel into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip.
• Using the tip of a small knife, poke a hole in the side of each beignet and slowly fill with the caramel.
• Arrange the beignets on a platter and serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

APPLE CIDER BEIGNETS WITH BUTTER-BOURBON DIPPING SAUCE RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Place the oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Peel and core the apples and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Pat apple rings dry. In a large, shallow bowl, put 1 1/4 cups of flour and make a well in the center. In a small bowl, beat the egg with a fork, stir in the cider and 1 tablespoon oil, and pour into the well. Stir in a circular motion with the fork slowly incorporating flour, and stir until a lumpy batter forms. Over medium-high heat, heat 2 inches of oil in a 5 to 6-quart heavy pot to 375 degrees F. Line a cookie plate with paper towels. Working in batches of 3, dredge the apple rings in the remaining 1/2 cup flour, shaking off excess, and then dip in the batter to coat, letting the excess drip off, and fry, gently turning over once with a slotted spoon, until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes total per batch. Lay the beignets on the plate and allow the paper towel to absorb excess oil. Transfer to a cookie sheet and keep warm in the oven. Return the oil to 375 degrees F between batches. Just before serving, dust the warm beignets with confectioners' sugar. Make sure the Butter Bourbon Dipping Sauce is warm, and serve on the side. Butter Bourbon Dipping Sauce: 1/2 cup sugar 2 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces 2 tablespoons water 2 tablespoons bourbon 1/4 teaspoon cider vinegar 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt 2 tablespoons heavy cream In a large, heavy skillet, heat the sugar over medium heat, stirring with a fork until it begins to melt. Once it is melting, stop stirring and cook, swirling the skillet occasionally so the sugar melts evenly. Cook until it is dark amber in color, and then remove from the heat. Put an oven mitt on the hand you will be using to stir in the ingredients and stand back to avoid splattering. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the butter, water, bourbon, vinegar, and salt and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until caramel has dissolved. Add the cream and bring to a boil and allow to cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring, and then remove from heat. Allow to cool down
