Finally got my husband using my Thermi. We made some with sultanas and some plain topped with nutella they were delicious. Hope to try the savoury version next time or maybe strawberry jam. Yummo
Are these almost like dutch oliebollen?
Hi there thank you so much for this recipe. If making them with sultanas, at what stage would you put them in?
Your so welcome.. It is a tradition at xmas time with our family too so I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
Thank you for this recipe, it brought a tear to my eye when I saw it. I thought it might never eat another zeppoli after my Nanna passed away. Now I can make them for my girls
Delicious with apple and cinnamon or banana thanks for sharing.
