RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE TIMBITS FROM CANADA

Timbits are small and delicious fried dough balls that have become an icon of gastronomy in Canada. They are perfect to enjoy at any time of the day, whether as a dessert or as a sweet snack.

Timbits Ingredients

2 cups flour

1/3 cup sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 egg

3/4 cup milk

2 tablespoons melted butter

Oil for frying

Glazed sugar or chocolate coating (optional)

Preparation of Timbits step by step

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.

In another bowl, beat the egg and then add the milk and melted butter.

Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients and mix well until you obtain a homogeneous dough.

Let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes.

Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium heat.

With the help of a spoon, form small balls with the dough and fry them in the hot oil until golden brown all over.

Remove the Timbits from the oil and place them on absorbent paper to drain excess fat.

If you wish, you can sprinkle the Timbits with icing sugar or dip them in melted chocolate coating.

Serve the Timbits hot and enjoy this delicious Canadian delicacy.
