We were brought up with a dutch mom and dad in Canada and these were on our table weekly. I learned how to make them as a teenager. There is nutmeg in them for sure and the "gravy" is delicious. We always ate these with plain boiled potatoes. Comfort food for sure.

This does come with some safety concerns, so please don't fill the pot more than halfway with oil, and fry one or two beignets at a time to avoid the oil from spilling over the top. Please be careful! You will have to bring it up to 375F. Enjoy the appelbeignets!Nicole Holtenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15000959283858308949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144846758981844946.post-55860091095975592672016-12-11T20:58:48.283-07:002016-12-11T20:58:48.283-07:00HI just wondering what oil you use and also does i...HI just wondering what oil you use and also does it need to be a deep frier or just a pot of oil at boiling point will do.

However, if you found it too thin to work with it, feel free to add a tablespoon or two of flour. It will not affect the taste.

Hope the appelbeignets are similar to his recipe. As for the meatballs, check under Gehaktballen met jus: the meat is flavored with nutmeg and simmered in water.

I love your stories about Dutch customs and the "Prakken" story especially cracked me up! Very recognizable... These recipes will definitely come in handy. We actually just celebrated Sinterklaas last weekend with my American in-laws and we made stamppot boerenkool. Next year we'll have to try some of your recipes...<br /><br />Also, I grew up in a family where my mom always put out just enough cookies so everyone could have one. She changed a bit over the years and I've also been at other people's homes where they do serve more than just one.
