Bombolini are little, perfectly sized Italian donuts (or doughnuts) that are very easy to prepare at home. I use a slightly different method than most other recipes you’ll find.
First, I use the double rise method, which produces a finer crumb, less air holes and a better flavor because of the extended fermentation.
Second, I roll the bombolini out into little balls as opposed to stamping them out with a cutter. This allows me to utilize all the prepared dough with zero waste.
There’s a few additional steps in my bombolini recipe, but the payoff is well worth it. Watch the video, give it try and let me know what you think in the comments below.

You Tube search. I was looking for a “pączki” recipe in Polish.
You tube recommendations as well… I love all things Italian, and these look doable and delicious! Thank you!
We call them Krapfen in Austria
Can I (somehow) make them in the oven, instead of frying them?
Ingredients measurement?
Yummy
Can these be baked? Lovely video. Looks delicious. Btw, came up in my recommended video to watch. Glad it did!
The recipe is great, one little thing though. 1/2 cup of milk is 130g, not 90g. I’ve made the dough using only 90g of milk and it came out a bit too dense. Anyway, thanks for the video!
ISSO AI NUM EH DONUT NAO ISSO AI EH SONHO
Can these be baked aswell
Oh this looks amaaazing. Might have to make them this weekend!! Stunning video!
São bolas de Berlim mas mais pequenas lol
This particular video is receiving a ton of views compared to other recipes on my channel. I assume that it’s been linked to from another website. I’d really appreciate a reply to this comment on how you found my Bombolini recipe. Google search? YouTube search? A blog? Another website? Thanks so much!
Hi ! Can I use whipped cream instead of the pastry cream ?
In Chile we call them “Berlines” or “Berlín” in singular.
Here in Brazil, this is called a sonho ( dream)
Easy, with homely ingredients & delicious. Recipe and nothing else. I like this video.
great.
Please, I want the ingredients
berliner ballen sind das ! 😀
Hi there! Love the video. I noticed that you have a bowl life kitchen aid which I have to. A problem I’ve noticed with mind is that the bowl is never parallel/flat. It’s always slightly angled, resulting in some areas not being mixed in and me having to scrape down the sides a lot. I always thought that the unit I got was a return unit until I noticed that you kinda pushed it in and that made the bowl sit flat. Could you help guide me in what you did please? Thanks:)).
in iran we call it “noon khamei” which means cream bread. i love it so much
Yummmmmmmm
Great quality
Love your Videos and recepies
3 in a big pot
It was recommended and I love bomboloni so…..
Do I understand you correctly ? Is it 2 eggs n 1 extra egg yolk ? Pls help
Prawie jak pączki
Great video and very easy to follow, looking forward to making these this weekend! My only issue is touching dough with a bare hand with a ring on it. Rings always carry so much bacteria. That’s just me being neurotic though lol.
I am making these right now. I did add orange zest to dough & to custard. Just finished the custard, OMG-YUMM! The dough has 20min left to rise, can’t wait to try when they are done! Thank you for the recipe. This recipe showed in the next video after watching HANSE channel Home Compilation of latte and coffee.
nop, Bolas de Berlim…
I don’t have a dough hook. Can I do it by hand? I’ve tried with other recipes but the doughnuts came out too light and weren’t fluffy. Would appreciate some help
Soo making these!!! Great easy to follow recipe.
my last meal
u sound like joe mazzelo lol
Wow what a recipe
Berlinesas, o bolas de fraile, acá se comen con dulce de leche
