Tall, fragrant, and soft as a cloud,  

Grandma Rosa’s donut will win you over. Here’s the traditional step-by-step recipe:
Ingredients:

500g flour,
300g sugar,
300ml milk
, 200g butter,
4 eggs
, grated lemon zest,
2 sachets of baking powder,
2 sachets of vanilla extract.

Preparation:

1️⃣

Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, vanilla, and grated lemon zest. Stir well to combine the dry ingredients.

2️⃣

Add the wet ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs and add the melted butter and milk. Stir until smooth.

3️⃣

Combine the two mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir well until smooth and lump-free.

4️⃣

Pour into the pan: Grease and flour a bundt pan, then pour the batter into it, smoothing it out with a spatula.

5️⃣

Bake: Bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes, but always test with a toothpick to ensure it’s cooked through (insert a toothpick into the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, it’s ready!).

6️⃣

Finish and serve: Let the cake cool before removing it from the pan. If you like, sprinkle with a little powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
