Wonderful Italian sweet recipe-usually made on Italian Feast Days
Beat eggs, add sugar, then ricotta, mix well. Sift dry ingredients together, then add gradually to egg mixture. Add vanilla. Batter is fairly thick. This makes at least 80 golf size fritters. Drop into hot oil by teaspoonful and fry until golden brown.
I fry them in Canola oil, in a 2 quart pot filled about half full, medium heat, adjusting heat according to how fast they are cooking. Drain on paper towel and roll in granulated sugar while they are hot or dip them in honey as you eat them. Serve while they are hot. They are delicious!
