Gluten Free Mini Beignets (Pets De Nonne)
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup all-purpose gluten free flour
- 1 t. xantham gum
- 4 eggs
- Oil for deep frying
- 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- Sift together salt flour and xantham gum.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter with the water. Add flour mixture, and stir with a spatula until a sticky batter is formed. One at a time, beat in eggs until the batter is smooth.
- Heat the oil to 375F. Form mounded tablespoons of dough using two spoons and scraping the dough from one spoon with the other, into the oil. Fry several spoons of dough at a time, for about 6 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil when they are light, golden brown on each side. Place them on a plate with a few layers of paper towels to drain. Serve warm, dusted with the confectioners' sugar.
