Serve these pastries warm for the best texture and flavor. They pair wonderfully with jams, honey, or a dusting of powdered sugar. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat gently in a pan or oven to restore crispness.
Variations:
Add cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough for a warm spice flavor.
Mix in finely chopped nuts or dried fruit for added texture.
Substitute vanilla sugar with lemon zest for a fresh citrus twist.
Brush pastries with melted butter after cooking for extra richness.
FAQ:
Can I use all-purpose flour or should I use a specific type?
All-purpose flour works perfectly for this recipe.
Is it necessary to use vanilla sugar?
Vanilla sugar adds a subtle aroma and sweetness, but regular sugar with a splash of vanilla extract is a good alternative.
Can I bake these pastries instead of frying?
Yes, baking at 180°C (350°F) for about 12-15 minutes until golden is a healthier option.
How do I make the pastry crispier?
Use slightly more oil for frying and avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain heat and crispness.
