ORANGE VANILLA PIZZELLES

This was given to me by a friend many years ago and it is the only recipe that I like.....I have tried dozens of pizzelle recipes over the years and always return to this one. My family does not like anise flavoring and this recipe always gets rave reviews because they are a different flavor.I hope that you will try it, you'll love them! I always dust them lightly with powdered sugar for an extra special treat. My pizzelle iron is made by Palmer Manufacturing and it is the absolute best iron in the world.....you NEVER make a bad cookie, everyone comes out perfect. I also use a very small ice cream scoop to portion my batter.

AUNT PHILLOMENA'S PIZZELLE



Aunt Phillomena's Pizzelle image

At the holidays, these crisp, simple cookies are stacked everywhere in Italian kitchens. My family was from Abruzzi, and my mother always used the recipe from her older sister. You can scent these cookies with orange, almond or lemon or just vanilla, but we always made plenty with anise at Christmas. You can use a simple stove-top pizzelle maker or an electric one. I prefer the kind without a non-stick coating. A little shot of cooking spray or a wipe with some cooking oil helps prime the press. Like pancakes, you will probably throw away the first one.

Time 1h

Yield About 4 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 3/4 cups/210 grams flour, plus a little more if batter is too thin
2 teaspoons/15 grams baking powder
1/2 teaspoon/6 grams salt
3 eggs
3/4 cup/150 grams sugar
1/4 pound/113 grams butter, melted
1 teaspoon/5 milliliters vanilla
1/2 teaspoon/2.5 milliliters anise extract

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. In a larger bowl, beat eggs and sugar until blended and slightly fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Slowly add cooled, melted butter, vanilla and anise and mix until incorporated well. Mix in dry ingredients a cup or so at a time, until batter is smooth but thick.
  • Using 2 spoons, one to scoop up the batter and the other to ease it onto the iron, drop batter onto the center of a well-heated pizzelle maker. For smaller, 3-inch pizzelles, use a generous teaspoon of batter. For the 5-inch, use about a tablespoon.
  • Cook for 30 to 40 seconds, or until just lightly brown. Gently remove to a rack or plate to cool.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ingredients: Use high-quality flour, sugar, butter, and eggs. Fresh orange zest is essential for the best flavor.
  • Preheat your pizzelle maker: Make sure the pizzelle maker is hot before you start cooking. This will help the pizzelles cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizzelle maker: Cook the pizzelles in batches, leaving enough space between them so that they can cook properly.
  • Cook the pizzelles until they are golden brown: Keep an eye on the pizzelles as they cook, and remove them from the maker when they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Let the pizzelles cool before storing: Allow the pizzelles to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. This will help them stay crispy.
