Ingredients
  • 1 cup Self Rising Flour
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 3 1/2 tablespoons Sugar
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
Instructions
  • Add the sour cream, sugar, and vanilla extract to a large bowl. Then, mix in the flour and mix until dough forms. Place it on a floured surface and use a rolling pin to shape it into a rectangle.
  • Fold it a few times. Shape it again into a 1″ inch thick rectangle. Cut it into 9 squares and lightly dust each one with flour. Set aside for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 360F (180C). Spray the basket with cooking oil (I use olive oil cooking spray).
  • Brush the top of the dough with melted butter. Place the pieces into the air fryer basket with the buttered side down. Brus the top with more butter.
  • Air fry for 6-8 minutes until the edges start to brown. Then, flip them and air fry them for another 5-7 minutes.
  • Remove from the air fryer and dust with powdered sugar. That’s it! Serve and enjoy these delicious beignets!
