4. Carefully drop the dough in spoonfuls into the hot oil. Cook until lightly golden.

5. Dust with confectioners sugar before serving.

Chef’s Tip: Zeppoles are also great filled. Add some vanilla pudding to a zip-top bag. Cut off the corner and use it as a piping bag to fill each zeppole after it’s cooled
