How To Make Crepes
How to make Crepes / Easy Crepe Recipe /french crepes
Ingredients
3 large eggs
2 cups of whole milk
1 cup of all purpose flour (sifted)
1 tsp vanilla
a pinch of salt
Sift the flour into a bowl
add milk , eggs, vanilla and salt and whisk together.
If you want a rich and creamy texture- mix with a hand mixer and pass through a strainer to remove any flour clumps.
let sit in fridge for 1 hr to dissolve the air bubbles before pan frying.
I am using my T-Fal non-stick pan (Jamie Oliver collection)
I heat my pan on medium (no need for butter or oil! it is that good of a pan)
Ladel in 1 scoop of mixture enough to coat the pan
once you start to see bubbles... it is ready to turn- using a silicone spatula not to scratch the pan- i release the edges before flipping over to cook on the other side.
this takes about 45 seconds each side and you are done!.
dress them how you want! (nutella, fruits, syrup etc)
I dusted mine with powdered sugar, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, fresh blueberries and maple syrup! absolutely delicious!
A must try!

How to make pignioli cookies / pine nut cookies
(GLUTEN FREE COOKIES)
Ingredients:
16 ounces of almond paste (2 packages of 8 ounces each)
2 cup of confectioners (powdered) sugar
2 large egg whites 🥚 (room temperature)
2 tsp if almond extract (clear)
2 - 3 cups of pine nuts (the pine nuts do not need to be roasted, as they will roast while the cookies are baking)
Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Makes approximately 30 cookies
Preparation:
1) The first thing you need to do is preheat your oven at 325 degrees Fahrenheit and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
2) Cut the almond paste in 1” inch pieces and place them into a food processor. Then add the confectioners sugar along with the egg whites, almond extract and blend on medium speed till all the ingredients are well blended together, (approx. 1-2 minutes).
*** NOTE: The dough should feel wet and sticky ***
3) For safety reason, REMOVE THE BLADE from the food processor and with a small ice cream scooper, scoop the mixture and gently drop the cookie dough into the dish filled with pine nuts.
4) Roll the dough in the pine nuts and place them on the cookie sheets, keeping 1 1/2” inch apart because the cookies tend to spread while they bake.
5) Once you have completed rolling your cookies into the pine nuts, now they are ready to go into the preheated 325 degree Fahrenheit oven for 14-16 minutes,or until golden colour.
***NOTE*** Do not overtake because you want the inside of the cookie to remain soft and chewy ***
6) After the cookies have baked and you have removed them from the oven, you will notice that they are still very soft. Let them cool directly on the cookie sheet for approx. 15 minutes before transferring them on a wire rack(if you choose to lightly top them with powdered sugar) or a serving dish. The cookies should be slightly crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside.
7) Store the cookies in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or 2 months in the freezer.
8) Enjoy the cookies with family and friends or alone, while sipping a nice cup of coffee ☕️ or tea 🫖! 🫶

How to make soft and chewy Taralli's / Mammanonna's homemade Taralli's
How to make soft Taralli - homemade easy recipe from Mammanonna
Ingredients:
10-11 cups of A/P (all purpose) flour
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1 cup of vegetable oil (you may also use corn or canola oil)
2 cups of milk (slightly warmed enough to remove the chill from the milk)
8 eggs at room temperature
Makes approx. 60 tarallis
directions
Step 1) Slightly oil the bottom and the sides of 2 deep containers
Step 2) In your stand mixer bowl, sift 8 cups of A/P flour, add the baking powder and sugar and give it a couple of whirls at low speed
Step 3) In a separate medium size bowl mix your eggs, vegetable oil and milk. Whisk them all together and pour the mixture in a measuring cup.
This will make it easier to pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Gradually incorporate your wet ingredients into the dry ingredients on
low speed. Once all your wet ingredients have been incorporated into your dry ingredients, mix well at medium speed.
Step 4) Flour your working surface and remove your dough from the mixer and place it on your working surface and start kneading your dough.
Your dough should have the texture of a pasta dough.
If you feel that the dough is soft and sticky, add more flour into your dough and continue kneading. In this video, we needed to add about 2-3 cups of flour.
Tip: if your feel that the dough is too big for you to handle, divide
your dough in half. This with make it more easier and manageable
for you to knead your dough.
Step 5) Place your doughs into the 2 slightly oiled containers and seal them with their covers. Place the containers in a secure area and cover the
containers with blankets to keep the dough warm and the dough needs
to rest for 4 hours.
Step 6) Once your has rested, prepare 4 baking sheets lined with clean dish towels.
Lightly oil your work surface and remove the doughs from the containers,
one at a time and divide the dough in half and roll the divided dough into
into 2 logs, approx. 14-16” in length and 4” in width.
Step 7) Cut the logs into 1 1/2” strips and roll out the strips into a length
of about 6-8 inches and form the rolled strips into a circle and secure
the 2 ends by pinching them together and then give the ends a couple of
twirls. Place them on your baking sheets and cover the tarallis with a
clean dish towel (or tablecloth) to prevent them from drying.
Step 8) Now that you have completed rolling out your tarallis, fill a high raise pan or pot with 8 cups of water and bring the water to a boil.
Step 9) Once your water has started to boil, gently drop in your tarallis in the boiling water. To make sure that your tarallis didn’t stick to the bottom of the pan, carefully slide a fork under the tarallis. As soon as the tarallis float to the top, fish them out with a spider like ladle, and place them on a baking sheet lined with a dish towelo to tabsorb the water
.
Step 10) When you have finished boiling your tarallis, place two wire racks over both of your oven racks. The wire racks will secure the tarallis from falling in between theh grills of your oven racks. Now you are ready to preheat your oven to 350
.
Sep 11) Start placing your tarallis on the wired racks. After 10-12 minutes commence to check the tarallis. When you see that the tops or the bottoms of the tarallis have reached a golden/ brown color, it’s time to turn the tarallis on the other side. Once both sides of the tarallis have reached a golden/ brown color, remove them from the oven. Note that the tarallis will not be ready at the same
time. Remove the ones that are ready and leave the other ones till they are ready.
Step 12) Cool the tarallis completely (overnight is best) before storing them in an air tight container for up to 3 weeks, or up to 3 months in the freezer.
These tarallis are perfect for school or lunch snacks, road trips or when you are too busy and on the go and need something to tie you over, coffee breaks or pretty much anytime! They are not messy and make no crumbs.
That is why they are great for road trips!!!

How to make Linzer Cookies
Makes approx. 20-22 cookies
Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter 🧈 (room temperature)
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg 🥚 (room temperature)
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 1/2 cups sifted all purpose flour
1/2 cup sifted almond flour
Pinch of salt 🧂
Filling: approx. 1/2 cup of raspberry jam (classic cookies have seedless jam) however, jam with seeds is just as good. Any choice of jam works well.
Powdered sugar for dusting
———————————————————————————————————————
Recipe: You can use a stand mixer or a hand mixer
1) In a bowl sift your all purpose flour, almond flour and a pinch of salt and blend the ingredients together well with a whisk and set it aside.
2) On low speed to medium speed, cream the butter with the sugar together, until it’s light and fluffy (2-3 minutes) and then add the egg 🥚 along with the almond extract and beat till all is well incorporated. Remember to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula.
3) On low speed, add the flour in increments of 3 times and making sure that the flour is well blended between increments.
4) Collect the dough, form it into a ball and divide the dough in half. Take one part of the divided dough and place it in between 2 sheets of parchment paper(wax paper or plastic wrap also works well). With a rolling pin, gently spread out the dough to about 1/8” to 1/4” thickness and place the rolled out dough on a cookie sheet and into the freezer for about 10 minutes. The dough needs to be chilled before using the cookie cutters. *** The dough can be keep in the freezer overnight. Remove from freezer about 1/2 hour before using.
NOTE: This dough can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months in the form of a disc.
5) Cut out your shapes with the cookie cutters, keeping in mind that you need the same amount of bottom and top cookies.
Collect the dough scraps together and re-roll the dough in between 2 sheet of parchment paper and repeat the process.
6) Once completed cutting out your shapes, place the cookie sheets lined with parchment paper (or silicone liners) in the freezer for 10 minutes to ensure that the cookies hold their shapes. Then remove the cookie sheets from the freezer and place them into a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 12-14 minutes or until the cookies are slightly darker/ or the outer part of the cookies are a golden colour.
7) Let the cookies cool directly on the cookie sheets for 15 minutes, before transferring them on wire racks.
8) Separate the bottoms and the tops of the cookies on the wire racks and generously powder the tops of the cookies and set them aside.
9) Turn over the bottom part of the cookie and with an off set spatula spread a thin layer of jam, leaving the edges of the cookies free.
10) When you have completed spreading the bottom part of the cookies with the jam, top them with the powdered covered tops and with a tiny spoon, drop a bit of jam in the centre of the cut out part of the top powdered cookie.
11) NOTE: The cookies (plain, with no jam filling) can be kept in an air tight container for up to 3 months in the freezer.
12) And now the cookies are ready to be eaten and enjoyed ! ☕️ 🫖 🥛

zeppole
Christmas zeppole with Raisins
#zeppole #frieddough #sweetdough
Ingredients:
10 cups of All Purpose flour + 1 cup of flour reserved on the side
1 3/4 cup of sugar
3/4 cup neutral oil (vegetable, corn, canola, avocado…)
2 cups of raisins (uvetta)
1 envelope of yeast
And in a sauce pan warm approximately 10 cups of water.
Directions:
1) Pour the envelope of yeast in a measuring cup and add 2 cups of warm water & stir the mixture for a few seconds and set it aside.
2) Sift your flour into the largest bowl that you own.
3) Add your sugar evenly on top of the sifted flour and mix both ingredients together.
4) Stir your yeast again till it’s mixed well and add it into the dry mixture and start working the dough with your hands and then add your neutral oil and continue to work the dough.
5) Have the saucepan with the warm water beside you with a ladle and periodically add the warm water as your are continuously working the dough with your hands.
The reason why we use warm water for this recipe is to continue to help activate the yeast.
6) Add your raisins and more warm water should be added periodically, till you get the texture of a moist, sticky and clingy dough.
FOR THIS RECIPE WE ENDED UP USING 5 CUPS OF WARM WATER 💧
7) Cover your dough with a lightly oiled plastic wrap and place your bowl in the warmest spot in your home and cover the bowl with blankets or table clothes and let the dough rest for 2 hours.
The dough needs to be doubled in size.
8) Once the dough has risen after resting for the 2 hour mark, prepare your frying pan 1/2 way with neutral oil on a medium/high heat.
9) With 2 teaspoons, dip them in the frying oil and then scoop up the dough and gently lower your spoons into the frying oil and release your dough.
By dipping your spoons into the oil, this prevents the dough from sticking to your spoons and helps to release the dough into your frying pan.
10) Fry your zeppoles till they are golden brown and place them in a bowl lined with paper towel to absorb the excess oil.
11) When the zeppoles have cooled, you may top them with a sprinkle of icing powdered sugar; HOWEVER, the original recipe calls for drizzles of HONEY 🍯
12) Store them plain, in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks OR up to 2 months in the freezer.
13) Prepare yourself a hot beverage ☕️ 🫖 or a nice glass of wine 🍷 and ENJOY! 😋
