Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your pizzelle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the sugar and eggs until light and fluffy. (3 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Gradually add the melted butter, anise extract, and vanilla extract to the egg mixture, mixing until well combined. (2 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Drop a spoonful of batter onto the center of each pizzelle iron plate. Close the iron and bake until golden brown, approximately 45-60 seconds, depending on your iron. (45-60 seconds per batch)

06

Step
2 mins

Carefully remove the pizzelle from the iron using a thin spatula and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. (2 minutes per batch)

07

Step

Once cooled, dust generously with confectioners' sugar, if desired. Store in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.

For best results, ensure the butter is melted but not hot, as this could cook the eggs slightly.
If you don't have anise extract, you can substitute with a half teaspoon of anise seeds, finely ground.
Pizzelle are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
Experiment with different extracts, such as lemon or almond, for a unique flavor twist.

    These pizzelle were a hit! The anise flavor is subtle but adds a lovely warmth. My family loved them!

  • Clyde Purdy

    The recipe was easy to follow, and the pizzelle came out perfectly crispy. I added a sprinkle of cinnamon to the batter for a festive touch.

    My grandmother used to make these, and this recipe brought back so many memories. Thank you for sharing!

  • Larry Williamson

    I had some trouble with the batter sticking to the iron at first, but I found that lightly greasing the plates with cooking spray helped a lot.
