In Ethiopia, desserts are not an important part of the meal. However, with Ethiopia's delicious coffee traditions and Italian influences, these honey ricotta snacks make a perfect finish to a spicy meal. This is our pumpkin pie spiced sweet version of the traditional Dabo Kolo, which is a bread used as a snack or appetizer.

Time 40m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 set 1/2 tbsp rawspicebar's freshly ground pumpkin spice
2 set 1/2 pound ricotta cheese
3 set 2 eggs
4 set 1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
5 set 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
6 set 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, softened
7 set 1/2 cup honey
8 set vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • In medium sized bowl, whisk ricotta cheese until creamy. Add eggs and whisk well. Whisk in RawSpiceBar's Pumpkin Spices, flour, salt and butter.
  • Add oil to a deep frying pan or wok, to about 1/2 inch up the side of the pan. Heat oil to 350-360 degrees or until a bit of the dough instantly rises to the surface when added.
  • Add dough to pan, 1 tbsp a time, pushing it off with a spoon or spatula. When golden brown on one side, turn to brown other side, until puffed into small balls.
  • Transfer dough with a slotted spoon to a paper lined baking sheet and allow to cool slightly. To serve, arrange on a platter and drizzle with the honey. Enjoy!
