Fritule (Dalmatian Doughnuts)

About

Small, round deep-fried doughnuts flavoured with lemon zest, rum, raisins, and sometimes pine nuts — a beloved Dalmatian Christmas and carnival treat. Crispy on the outside, soft and fragrant inside, they’re dusted with icing sugar and eaten by the bag. Every Dalmatian family has its own recipe passed down through generations. Find them at winter markets and coastal bakeries.
