Time 40m

Yield 35 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 quarts vegetable oil (for frying)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Stir in the eggs, ricotta cheese and vanilla. Mix gently over low heat until combined. Batter will be sticky.
  • Drop by tablespoons into the hot oil a few at a time. Zeppole will turn over by themselves. Fry until golden brown, about 3 or 4 minutes. Drain in a paper sack and dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm.

These zeppole were a bit of a disappointment. They were too oily and the dough was too dense.

These zeppole are the best I've ever had. They're so light and fluffy, and the ricotta filling is to die for.

I followed the recipe exactly and my zeppole turned out terrible. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These zeppole were a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall they were still pretty good.

I'm not a big fan of ricotta, but these zeppole were still really good. The dough was light and fluffy, and the sugar coating was the perfect touch.

Not bad, but not great either. The zeppole were a bit dense and the ricotta filling was too sweet for my taste.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The dough was too sticky and the zeppole didn't rise properly.

These zeppole were amazing! They were so light and fluffy, and the ricotta filling was delicious. I will definitely be making these again.
