It’s Mardi Gras season so let’s indulge in the joyous Mardi Gras celebration with these delightful beignets. Make them right at the comfort of your home, and enjoy with friends and family. I used lifewaykefir Lifeway Organic Strawberry Banana Kefir instead of milk which adds more flavor and benefits. You know kefir is my favorite drink. This flavor is so rich and creamy made with certified organic full fat milk up to 99% lactose-free, gluten-free, and made with organic, non-GMO ingredients. It is packed with protein, calcium, and 12 live and active probiotic cultures. These pillowy delights deep-fried to golden perfection and dusted with powdered sugar, are a heavenly combination of crispy outer layers and soft, doughy interiors. Perfect for embracing the festive spirit of Mardi Gras! Click the link in my stories to find lifewaykefir location near you! #MadeWithLifeway #LoveYourGuts #LifewayEveryday

1 tsp vanilla extract
4 tbsp melted butter
1 tbsp lemon zest
2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions
In a large bowl whisk the yeast with the water and 1 tbsp sugar. Let it rest for 10 minutes to activate.
Into the same bowl add the kefir, egg, the rest of sugar, vanilla, lemon zest and melted butter. Whisk again to incorporate all the ingredients.
Add the flour and a pinch of salt. Combine well until the dough forms. Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes. Transfer the dough to a greased bowl. Cover and let it rest until it doubles the volume.
Roll the dough out to 1/4” thickness. Cut into squares approx. 3”x 3” squares.
Let them rest for another 10 minutes and fry in batches. Dust with a lot of powdered sugar. Enjoy!
