Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and sugar. Add the baking powder and a pinch of salt, and mix well to combine.

  3. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the vegetable oil, eggs, white wine, vanilla extract, and lemon zest into the well.

  4. Using a wooden spoon or your hands, mix the ingredients until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, gradually add more flour until it becomes smooth and elastic.

  5. Take a small piece of dough and roll it into a thin rope, about 6 inches long. Join the ends together to form a circle and press lightly to seal. Repeat this process with the remaining dough.

  6. Place the formed taralli on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.

  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the cookies are lightly golden brown.

  8. Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving.

  9. Store the Italian Cookie Taralli in an airtight container to maintain their freshness and enjoy them within a few days.
