Berlingozzo
Berlingozzo is a traditional Italian pastry that originated in Tuscany. This scrumptious treat is typically shaped like a donut or a ring, and it's made with flour, sugar, eggs, and sometimes flavored with lemon zest or anise.
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 lemon zest (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch salt
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the eggs, melted butter, lemon zest (if using), and vanilla extract. Mix well until a dough forms.
- Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Shape the dough into a ring or donut shape, about 1 inch thick.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you let the shaped dough rest for about 10 minutes.
- Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for approximately 25-30 minutes or until the Berlingozzo turns golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the Berlingozzo from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, gently dust the Berlingozzo with powdered sugar.
- Slice and enjoy!
