- Sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into a big bowl.
- In a smaller bowl, combine the milk, water, and egg; whisk until well blended.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients; stir until the batter is well blended and smooth.
- In a deep-fat fryer or deep, heavy skillet, heat about 2 inches of oil over med-high heat until it reaches 325° on a deep fat thermometer.
- Drop the batter by heaping teaspoons into the fat about 10 at a time (never overcrowding the vessel), fry until golden brown, 6-7 minutes, and drain on paper towels.
- Place the powdered sugar in a fine sieve and sprinkle generously over the beignets.
