Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 4 large Eggs
- 115 grams Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 100 grams Hazelnut flour or finely ground toasted hazelnuts
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, hazelnut flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer or whisk until the mixture is pale and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the melted and cooled butter and vanilla extract to the egg mixture. Mix well to combine.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Preheat your pizzelle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Step 6
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter onto the center of each pizzelle plate. Close the lid and cook according to the pizzelle maker's directions, usually about 30-60 seconds, or until golden brown.
Step 7
Carefully remove the pizzelle using a spatula and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. If a crispier texture is desired, allow them to cool in a single layer without stacking.
Step 8
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the pizzelle maker lightly if necessary.
Step 9
Store the cooled pizzelle in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
