Make Beignet Dough:

• Combine warm water and yeast in a small bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes. 
• Combine apple juice, applesauce, sugar, egg replacer, salt, oil, and cinnamon in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (like a Kitchen Aid mixer). Mix well until combined. 
• Add pizza crust mix, ¼ cup at a time, until soft dough forms (won’t use all of the mix). 
• Turn dough out onto table dusted with remaining pizza crust mix. Knead until dough is no longer sticky but still soft. 
• Roll dough to ¼ inch thickness and cut using a mickey cookie cutter. 
• Set aside at room temp for 20 minutes.

Fry Mickey Mouse Beignets:

• Pour oil into a deep pot until it reaches 2 inches up sides.
• Heat oil over medium heat to 350°F.
• Lightly press beignets to slightly flatten.
• Carefully add a few beignets to hot oil. Fry until golden brown on each side, flipping over once. 
• Remove from hot oil with a slotted spoon onto a baking sheet with a few paper towels to soak up the oil. 
• Dust with a generous amount of confectioners sugar and serve hot.

Enjoy!
