Ingredients

For the Dough

- 1½ cups maida (all-purpose flour)

- 2 tbsp sugar

- 1 tsp instant yeast

- A pinch of salt

- 2 tbsp yogurt/curd

- ½ cup lukewarm milk, adjust as needed

- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

For the Filling

- Nutella or any chocolate cream, as required

For Coating

- Caster sugar

How to Make Nutella Bomboloni

1. Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, add the maida, sugar, instant yeast, and salt.

Add the yogurt and mix well.

Slowly add the lukewarm milk while mixing until a soft dough forms. Add the softened butter and knead for 8–10 minutes, or until the dough becomes smooth and stretchy.

Cover the dough and let it rest for approximately 2 hours, or until it doubles in size.

2. Shape the Bomboloni

Once the dough has doubled in size, gently knead it again to remove excess air.

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions.

Shape each portion into a smooth ball and place them on butter paper.

Cover and allow them to rest again for 30–45 minutes, or until they become light and fluffy.

3. Fry the Bomboloni

Heat oil in a pan over a low-medium flame.

Carefully add the dough balls to the oil and fry slowly.

Turn them occasionally so they cook evenly and become golden brown on all sides.

Remove the Bomboloni from the oil and place them on tissue paper or paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

4. Fill with Nutella

Once the Bomboloni have cooled slightly, make a small hole in the side or top of each one.

Transfer the Nutella or chocolate cream into a piping bag.

Pipe a generous amount of Nutella into each Bomboloni until they're deliciously filled.

5. Coat and Serve

Roll each filled Bomboloni in caster sugar until evenly coated.

Serve fresh and enjoy the soft, fluffy dough with a creamy chocolate surprise inside. 🍫✨

Tips for Soft and Fluffy Bomboloni

- Make sure the milk is lukewarm, not hot, when adding it to the dough.

- Knead the dough well for 8–10 minutes to develop a smooth and stretchy texture.

- Give the dough enough time to rise and double in size.

- Don't rush the second resting period after shaping the Bomboloni.

- Fry them slowly over low-medium heat so they cook through while developing a beautiful golden exterior.

- Fill the Bomboloni generously with Nutella while they're still fresh.
