Cooking Tips

You will need a standing mixer with a dough hook to make these beignets. I like the Hamilton Beach Stand Mixer. You will also need a Mickey Mouse Cookie Cutter. If you don’t have one, you can just cut the beignets into square shapes. I also used a Candy Thermometer to ensure that the cooking oil stayed at 350 degrees Fahrenheit which helped the Mickey beignets to cook evenly.

The ingredients for the Disney Club 33 pumpkin beignets recipe include:

  • Dry yeast
  • Warm water (105ยฐ)
  • All-Purpose flour
  • Canned pumpkin puree
  • Sugar
  • Heavy cream
  • Egg
  • Vegetable shortening
  • Salt
  • Vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle yeast over warm water in a small bowl, stirring to dissolve. Let stand for 5 minutes.

  2. Combine flour, pumpkin puree, sugar, heavy cream, hot water, egg, shortening, and salt in a large bowl; stir in yeast mixture. Mix dough just until combined and smooth. Let dough rest in bowl, covered with a clean kitchen towel, 30 minutes.

  3. On a floured surface, roll to 1/4-inch thickness and cut individual beignets with a Mickey Mouse-shaped cutter or cut into 2 1/2 to 3-inch squares. Cover with a towel and let dough rise until doubled in size in a warm, draft-free area, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

  4. Using caution, heat 3 inches of vegetable oil to 350ยฐF in a deep, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Fry beignets until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes, turning as soon as they brown on one side. Remove with tongs and place on paper towels to drain.ย ย 

  5. Make the maple glaze by combining butter and maple syrup in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until butter melts. Whisk in powdered sugar until smooth.

  6. Drizzle warm beignets with maple glaze and serve immediately โ™จ enjoy!
