BEWITCHED FRITTERS quick sweet Carnival treats, very simple and delicious, perfect idea for adults and kids, sugary, crunchy, and tasty.
I was craving a quick Carnival sweet, with no stress and no complicated doughs.
That’s how these Bewitched Fritters were born, fragrant, soft inside, and crunchy outside, ready in just a few minutes.
The sweet Bewitched Fritters are perfect when you have little time but want to bring something to the table that immediately smells of celebration.
Simple dough, you fry, roll them in sugar, and they disappear. Done.
They are the classic easy Carnival fritters, the ones you make at the last minute, ideal for a tasty snack or a tray of sweets to share.
The Strega liqueur gives them that extra aroma that makes them different from the usual sweet fritters.
Are there children? No problem, the alcohol evaporates during frying, leaving only the aroma.

💡 SMART TIPS (from a food blogger, not a manual)
• Use hot oil: the Carnival fritters must puff up immediately
• Don’t overdo it with the sugar in the dough, better to be generous outside
• If you want a more intense taste, add a splash of Strega to the sugar as well
• Excellent also in air fryer, lightly brushed with oil
