Bomboloni (italian doughnuts)
December 19, 2016
Edit
These are completely homemade and easier than you’d think! The only problem, as usual, is patience. You have to give these babies enough time to rise so that they become light, fluffy, sugary clouds. Sooooo good. And SO worth the wait!
These are absolutely incredible, and you’ll fall in love with them! Make bomboloni at home and bring a little taste of Italy to you!
