Green –

  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup zero calorie sugar (I use Lakanto Monkfruit Classic)
  • 1/8 cup water
  • 1 egg, separated
  • 1 1/2 tsp melted light butter
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch
  • 2 Tbsp zero point confectioners' sugar

  1. Preheat air fryer to 370 degrees F. Spray a silicone egg-bite mold with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. Mix flour, sugar, water, egg yolk, butter, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir to combine.

  3. 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.

  4. Place filled silicone mold into the basket of the air fryer.

  5. Fry in the preheated air fryer for 7 minutes. Remove mold from the basket carefully;pop beignets out and flip over onto a parchment paper round.

  6. Place parchment round with beignets back in the air fryer basket. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove beignets from the air fryer basket and dust with confectioners' sugar.
