Believe it or not I have never heard of Zeppoles before making this.
What kind of Italian am I who hasn’t heard of zeppole?
I’ve made Struffoli before and have even taken a shot at pignolata, which honestly seems pretty close to zeppola but there is a bit of a difference, which I’ll get into later.
Regardless, zeppoles are easy to make, delicious, and make for an awesome breakfast or dessert treat.
Ingredients for this Zeppole Recipe:
• 380 g (13 ½ ounces) room temp water
• 13 g (1/2 ounce) active yeast
• 650 g (23 ounces) flour
• 16 g (1/2 ounce) salt
• oil for cooking
• powdered sugar for coating
Servings:
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Resting Time: 60 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Procedures:
1. Add the water to a stand mixer with the hook attachment and then whisk in the yeast until combined. Let stand for 8-10 minutes.
2. Next, turn the mixer on low and add in the flour and mix until combined. Add in the salt.
3. Knead the dough on medium-low speed for 10 minutes.
4. Cover and let stand for 60 minutes or until doubled in size.
5. Heat up the oil until it reaches 375°.
6. Using a small ice cream scoop or 2 tablespoons scoop some of the dough out and add it to the hot oil and cook until golden brown and cooked throughout about 5-6 minutes. Be sure to turn then often so that they brown on all sides. Repeat until all the dough has been used and only cook 4-6 at a time in the pot so that they do not become overcrowded.
7. Drain the zeppole on a paper towel and generously sprinkle on powdered sugar and serve.

I made this today and they are yummy… one thing I didn't do was to let the yeast and the water sit for 8 minutes… I added the flour right away… the zeppole were a little on the tough side..tasted good but hard to chew…could that be the reason they are that way, because I did not let the yeast and water sit for a while?
Zeh-poh-leh and you missed the potatoes, sugar and butter. 👌
What idea do You have for a filling?
What if I didn’t wanna use them right away after they have doubled in size? Wrap and put in fridge til later on that evening?
Wrong recipe!Zeppole must have chocolate in it! Huh😡
Love zeppolies
The traditional version has potatoes. This is literally an American donut recipe 👎🏽
Does the water have to be luke warm? or no. Lots of recipies always say warm water with yeast .
Nicely done, I like your approach on measure everything out.
These look amazing and hopefully easy to make.
