Ingredients

  • 450 g – 3½ cups plain flour
  • 125 ml – ½ cup white wine
  • 125 ml – ½ cup sunflower oil
  • 100 g – ½ cup granulated sugar – plus extra for coating

Instructions

  1. Put all the ingredients into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a hook attachment and knead well.

  3. Divide the dough into small pieces and roll them into ropes about 1 cm – ½ inch thick. Cut the ropes into segments approximately 15 cm – 6 inches long, then join the ends to form a drop-like shape and press lightly with your finger.
  4. Coat the taralli with granulated sugar and arrange them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C – 355°F for 15–20 minutes.
