Call them what you will, but Carnival can not miss!
The crostoli, Galani, frappe, or chat has always been, along with pancakes, the sweet symbol of the carnival, but if you have some problem with fried foods are often forced to give up. This recipe for cooking in the oven instead is a good compromise between lightness and taste!
For those who want it you can make stuffed, I love them!
Ingredients for 4 people:
400 g of flour
80 grams of sugar
2 eggs
40 g butter, softened
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1 sachet of vanilla
3 tablespoons Marsala wine (or brandy)
1 pinch of salt
icing sugar
Ingredients for the stuffing (if desired):
marmallata (I used it a resounding with wild berries, this one a gift
)
mustard
hazelnut cream
Preparation:
Mix in a bowl the flour, sugar, softened butter, the 'oil, eggs, baking powder, salt, vanilla and marsala.
Shape into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and let rest in refrigerator for about half an hour.
Roll out the dough to the thickness of the machine No. 8, the penultimate mark of the machine (if you do it with a rolling pin, the galant should be fine), than to do it is better to lay them filled up to the mark No. 7.
Cut out with a galant wheel, place them on trays covered with baking paper and bake at 170 degrees for 15 minutes, until they are golden.
For those having filled squares cut out, put a teaspoon of jam in the middle or stuffed and close as desired to form triangles, place them on baking sheets and bake as above.
Dust with icing sugar and serve.
