How to Make Strufoli
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
- Make a well in the center and add the eggs and olive oil. Gradually incorporate the flour into the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into small, pea-sized balls (about 1 inch).
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a large, deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat.
- Carefully fry the dough balls in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Remove the fried dough balls with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- In a separate saucepan, combine the sugar, honey, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture reaches a light simmer.
- Add the fried dough balls to the honey mixture and stir gently to coat them evenly.
- Transfer the strufoli to a serving platter. While still warm, sprinkle with chopped candied fruit and sprinkles (if using).
- Allow the strufoli to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
