Beignets are really just a fritter. They are really popular in New Orleans, where my husband recently had a trip and brought the kids and me some. They were amazing.
Air Fryer Beignets are light, airy, and traditionally served with a dusting of powdered sugar. So, today, I made an air fryer version of them. Using my egg bite mold.
