In Argentina, pastry has a long history and remains very popular today. Among the classic recipes is that of vanilla fritters, a dessert that is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, perfect to enjoy with a good mate or a hot coffee on rainy days when family gathers for a moment of relaxation.
An infallible "grandma's recipe" to prepare something rich, sweet, and homemade, vanilla fritters are a delight that can be decorated with sugar, zest, and juice of orange or lemon. Furthermore, it is a simple preparation that even children can participate in making, which makes them even more special.
To prepare the vanilla fritters, ingredients such as wheat flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, eggs, milk, vanilla essence, and oil for frying are needed. The dough is prepared by mixing all the dry ingredients and then adding the liquids until a homogeneous and lump-free mixture is obtained. After letting the dough rest, small balls are formed and fried in hot oil until golden brown on all sides.
Once ready, the fritters are drained to remove excess fat and can be decorated with powdered sugar or cinnamon before serving. This simple and delicious recipe is an excellent option to enjoy at any time and can be customized with different ingredients to give a special touch to each preparation.
