Variations

Baking should be inclusive! 🌍 Here are some gluten-free and vegan variations so everyone can enjoy these delicious treats:

Gluten-Free: Simply replace the flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Ensure the baking powder is also gluten-free.

Vegan: Swap the egg with a flaxseed egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoons water) and use coconut oil or vegan butter instead of sunflower oil. Make sure your raspberry jam is free from honey or animal-derived gelatins. 🌱

Faq

  • How do I know when the Sbrisolonas are baked thoroughly?

    Check for a golden brown color on the top. They should be firm to touch but not hard.

  • Can I substitute other fruits for the raspberries?

    Absolutely! Strawberries, blueberries, or even a mix of berries work beautifully.

  • What type of oil works best for this recipe?

    Sunflower oil or melted butter are recommended, but you can also use coconut oil for a different flavor profile.

  • Can I prepare the dough ahead of time?

    Yes, you can make the dough a day ahead and store it in the refrigerator. Just bring it to room temperature before pressing it into the muffin molds.

  • How can I prevent the Sbrisolonas from sticking to the molds?

    Use non-stick muffin molds or line them with baking paper. Greasing the molds lightly with a bit of oil or butter also helps.

  • Can I use frozen raspberries?

    Yes, just make sure to thaw and drain them well before use to avoid excess moisture in the dough.
