Ciambella

Traditional Agri-food Product, on the national list of the Italian Ministry of Agriculture

Ciambella (Italian: [tʃamˈbɛlla]; pl.: ciambelle) is an Italian ring-shaped cake with regional varieties in ingredients and preparation. As an example, a basic version of the cake could be prepared using flour, baking powder, salt, eggs, milk (or cream), sugar, oil, and vanilla flavouring. Honey is sometimes added as a sweetener. To create the light texture the sugar and eggs are whisked together, and oil and milk are added while whisking continuously until the mixture is frothy.
