As kids, we always put in a heartfelt request for these Costas French Market doughnuts (beignets) on Christmas Eve. It was quite a family affair — my mom would make up the dough, my dad would roll them out and cut them, and then after frying them up, we kids would take turns shaking them in a paper bag with confectioners' sugar! I finally got to go to New Orleans and was excited to try "the real thing'" at the famous Cafe Du Monde. I was so happy because my husband and I said our recipe was a near-carbon copy of Cafe Du Monde! We've made this recipe for over 40 years, and I promise it won't disappoint!

I hope you enjoy as much as my mom did.

I promise your family will love this truly Southern recipe!

This recipe works best with a cast iron skillet as it holds heat so well. And besides, it makes the meal more authentic! Serve over buttermilk biscuits.

Often imitated, never duplicated. Just make sure that after you make this sausage biscuits and gravy for breakfast, you have a window of opportunity to go back to bed, because you won't be able to do much after consuming this. A cast-iron skillet is preferred. I prefer the taste that the maple sausage lends to the dish, however you could easily substitute regular or sage sausage in lieu of the maple.
