Description
Fried castagnole are a carnival classic, a simple and delicious dessert that brings joy! This recipe is perfect for preparing soft and light castagnole, ideal to be enjoyed with a sprinkling of granulated sugar. The preparation is quick and easy, especially with the help of the Thermomix. I always prepare them for the joy of the whole family, and they disappear in the blink of an eye! Try them too, they are irresistible! A tip: for an extra touch, add a little grated orange zest to the dough.
Ingredients (11 ingredients)
-
250 g 00 Flour
-
80 g Sugar
-
80 g Butter
-
2 piece Eggs
-
2 tbsp Anise liqueur
-
8 g Baking powder
-
1 piece Lemon zest
-
1 tsp Vanilla extract
-
1 pinch Salt
-
1 qb Peanut seed oil
-
100 g Granulated sugar
Preparation (7 steps)
Butter, lemon zest, sugar, vanilla extract and liqueur in the bowl
Cut 80g of butter at room temperature into small pieces and put it in the bowl. Add a pinch of salt, the grated zest of 1 lemon, 80g of sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons of anise liqueur. Mix 20 Sec./Stufe 3.
Adding the eggs
Add 2 whole eggs to the bowl and mix 20 Sec./Stufe 3.
Adding flour and baking powder
Add 250g of sifted flour and 8g of baking powder to the bowl. Knead 2 Min./Knetstufe.
Resting the dough
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface, form a loaf and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
Forming the castagnole
After resting, take the dough again and roll it into a 3-4 cm thick loaf. Cut the loaf into pieces and make a ball from each piece.
Frying the castagnole
Heat plenty of peanut seed oil in a pan suitable for frying and, when it has reached the temperature, dip the castagnole in it, a few at a time, making sure they have room to float in the oil.
Drain and sugar
When the castagnole are golden brown on the entire surface, drain them with a slotted spoon and place them on a sheet of absorbent paper, so that they lose excess oil. Roll the castagnole in 100g of granulated sugar that you have placed in a bowl, and serve still hot, lukewarm or at room temperature.
