My mother makes this each year!! No gas stove in our house, but invest in an enamel coated 6 qt. Dutch Oven. Much easier to regulate the temperature, even on electric burners.

Temperature is the key. She makes her’s a bit smaller and not as dark, but looks great.

Happy New Year!!

Any beer will do. Something thin though, like Budweiser.

Hi, my father was wanting to make oliebollen, but i just want to make it a bit simpler for him, do you need to use a specific type of beer or will any beer do? Thankyou.

Oooh, appelflappen are much better than oliebollen, in my opinion :)

And it is funny how you have to get all those complicated ingredients, we just buy “oliebollen mix” if we bake them ourselves. Since we don’t have a frying pan, we just buy oliebollen in the shops.

I know this is an old post, but I wanted to wish you a good 2011 anyway!
