Meet the Oliebollen! (Naughty, naughty)

in #food7 years ago

My guilty pleasure

There is a traditional fried cultural treat in the Netherlands called the Oliebollen, which is essentially a doughnut with either an apple, custard, or it comes just plain. They have to be made with soul to be cooked to perfection, and these lovelies shown below have plenty of soul in them. They're golden delicious, with a hard and crunchy exterior, with a fluffy and soft interior, heaven with a good cuppa. Let's look at the three different types of Oliebollen and the glass is filled with caster sugar to give an extra level of sweetness to them.

Heaven on Earth

If you fancy having a go at making one of these yourself, then there's a link to the recipe below, remember to use plenty of Soul when making them.

yap, i made it at my home and it was really tasty, thus i can feel how your food is tasty, thanks@flatrider.

I absolutely love them @abontikazaman, and how can anyone not find them tasty. There should be an Oliebollen day, if one doesn't exist already. :-D

Oliebollen are the thing I miss most about living in Holland. The fact that they're only available from the street vendors during Xmas and New Year somehow makes them doubly delicious.

They are most certainly delicious @deirdyweirdy and the good news is that they're available all year round up here at certain places. But, they're extra scrummy in the Winter time when it's really cold and they're freshly made, nice and warm. :-D

Thanks for sharing... Love it.
