Italian Mini Donuts, also known as "zeppole," are a delightful treat originating from Italy, traditionally enjoyed during celebrations and festivals. These bite-sized pastries are made from a simple dough of flour, eggs, sugar, butter, and a pinch of salt, often mixed with ricotta cheese for added fluffiness. Once fried to golden perfection, they are typically dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with honey for a sweet finishing touch. While their crisp exterior and airy interior make them an irresistible indulgence, they are a calorie-dense food due to frying and added sugars. Zeppole offer minimal nutritional value but small portions can be enjoyed occasionally as part of a balanced diet. For a healthier twist, consider baking instead of frying or experimenting with whole-grain flour and natural sweeteners. These mini donuts remain a delicious bite-sized nod to the rich culinary tradition of Italian desserts.
