These lemon zest and nutmeg flecked beignets still throw a Mardi Gras party in my mouth.
The classic powdered sugar topping is my favorite but dont be afraid to get creative with other topping ideas.
Then add salt, lemon zest, nutmeg, egg, milk, 1 1/2 cups flour and mix.

then add butter add the rest of your flour, then knead your dough on a floured surface.
Remove dough and punch down then roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/2 inch thickness.
Then sprinkle powdered sugar on your finished beignets and enjoy!
