We call these babies « croustillons » and those are typical carnival donut here in Belgium.

Making the dough is super simple;

250gr of flour
150ml of tepid milk
1 egg
7gr of dry yeast
20 gr of sugar
20 gr of softened butter
4gr of salt
1 small pack of Vanilla sugar

Beat the crap out of it for about 5 mins

And after a while it has doubled its volume:

Deep fried for a couple of minutes

And then add a lot of icing sugar -------

oliebollen are amazing.

A tip for your recipe, put a double space at the end of the line so it forms a list.

Hey we make these in Italy too! We call them Sgonfietti. (it translates to something like tiny de-enflateds... yeah doesn't really translate.)

We'd call these bunyols de vent in Catalonia. Wind fritters, apparently (not sure about the fritter bit, but seems to be the closest to bunyol I can find, so it'll have to do, because I don't think I could call them doughnuts).

Maybe wait a little while. Good news is that when it is safe to visit the exchange rate will probably be wildly in your favor.

They're different, but those reminded me of hushpuppies:

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal

  • 1/2 tsp. salt

  • 1/4 tsp. baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper

  • 1 large egg

  • 1/2 cup buttermilk

  • 1 cup minced onion

  • 2 cups vegetable oil

Directions

  1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a bowl. Make a well in the center of the mixture.

  2. Stir together egg and buttermilk. Add mixture to dry ingredients. Stir until moistened. Stir in onion.

  3. Pour oil into 10-inch cast iron skillet, and heat to 375°F. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into oil, and fry in batches 3 minutes on each side or until golden.

  4. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.

Oliebollen and Quarkbällchen look so similar but are so different
