A zeppola (plural: zeppole; in southern Italian dialects: zeppole, in north eastern dialects: frittelle) is an Italian pastry consisting of a deep-fried dough ball of varying size but typically about 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter.
The terms zeppole and sfinge are also used to refer to baked cream puffs made from choux pastry. Some zeppole are filled with ricotta mixed with small pieces of chocolate, candied fruits and honey. In some parts of the U.S., they are called crispellis.
