Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 eggs
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions:

Step 1: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Step 2: In a saucepan, bring the water and butter to a boil. Gradually add the flour mixture to the saucepan, stirring continuously until a dough forms.

Step 3: Remove the saucepan from heat and let the dough cool for a few minutes. Then, add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The dough should become thick and sticky.

Step 4: In a large pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Ensure that the oil is hot enough by dropping a small amount of dough into the pot – if it sizzles and floats to the top, the oil is ready.

Step 5: Using a spoon or a pastry bag, drop spoonfuls of dough into the hot oil. Be careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the zeppole until they turn golden brown on all sides, turning as needed.

Step 6: Once cooked, remove the zeppole from the oil using a slotted spoon or tongs. Place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 7: Sprinkle the zeppole generously with powdered sugar for a classic touch. You can also get creative and top them with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, or your favorite fruit preserve.

Step 8: Serve the zeppole warm and enjoy this delightful Italian treat with a cup of coffee or as a dessert after a delicious meal.

Now that you know how to make Calabrian zeppole from scratch, impress your friends and family with your newfound culinary skills. These little bites of heaven are sure to be a hit at any gathering or occasion. Buon appetito!
