Originating from Italy, Bomboloni are a type of fried doughnut that are a popular Carnival snack across the country, especially in the region of Tuscany. They are typically filled with a sweet cream or jam filling, and are often dusted with powdered sugar or coated in granulated sugar.

If you’re looking to make some Bomboloni for your next Carnival party or simply to satisfy your sweet tooth, here’s a classic recipe to get you started.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup warm water (about 110 degrees F)
• 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 large eggs, room temperature
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Let sit for about 5 minutes until the yeast begins to bubble and foam.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Create a well in the center of the bowl.

3. Add the yeast mixture, eggs, and softened butter to the well. Using a wooden spoon, stir the ingredients together until a sticky dough forms.

4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

5. Return the dough to the large bowl and cover it with a clean towel or plastic wrap. Let the dough rise for about an hour until it has doubled in size.

6. Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto a floured surface and roll it out to 1/2 inch thickness.

7. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass rim, cut out circles of dough and set them aside on a lightly floured surface. Cover the circles with a clean towel or plastic wrap and let them rise for another 30 minutes.

8. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, gently place the Bomboloni into the skillet and fry them for about 1-2 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.

9. Remove from the skillet and drain the Bomboloni on paper towels. Dust the Bomboloni with powdered sugar and serve immediately.

There you have it – a classic recipe for some delicious Bomboloni that are sure to be a hit at any Carnival celebration. These fried doughnuts are a perfect treat to share with friends and family, and can be customized with your favourite sweet cream or jam filling. So get your apron on, fire up that skillet, and start baking!
