New Orleans French Doughnuts Beignets are the state doughnut of Louisiana. Pronounced, ben-yay, New Orleans locals often call them French Doughnuts or French Market Doughnuts. Beignets were brought to Louisiana in the 1800's by the French Acadians from Nova Scotia. Although you're free to serve them any way you prefer, the traditional New Orleans beignet is a square piece of dough, about 3 x 3.
