Zeppoli |
Recipe contributed by Frances Voulo |
Ingredients |
- 1 lb ricotta
- 2 tsps vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- Vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 7 tsps sugar
- 2 tsps baking powder
- Dash of salt
- Confectionary Sugar
|
Preparation |
First combine dry ingredients, which includes flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Do not add the confectionary sugar. It is used at the end as a topping. Then combine wet ingredients. Combine wet to dry but don't over mix. In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 340 degrees. Take a tablespoon and scoop out some of the mixture and gently drop in the hot oil. Fry for 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towel then sprinkle confectionary sugar. This is the most amazing zeppoli I have ever eaten! If you want a more moist zeppoli, you can add more ricotta to the batter. I made the same recipe with 2 lbs of ricotta and they were even better! |
