Easy Italian Pizzelles

Easy Italian Pizzelles

Sharing is caring!

It’s the last day of #ChristmasCookies week and I’m going out with a bang! As promised, I’ve got one last cookie recipe for you from yet another country; this time, Italy! We’re headed to Italy in just a couple of weeks so it seems fitting that I would close out our sweets week with something from the country, right? These gluten free Italian Pizzelles are easy to make and are a huge crowd pleaser.

This recipe for Easy Italian Pizzelles is brought to you by Adam’s Extracts. All opinions are my own.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this week, with all the Christmas treats, and are feeling more prepared to start your festive celebrations! Can you believe Thanksgiving is only two weeks away? I can’t! And I’ve already started seeing Christmas commercials on tv and Christmas music is starting to play on my local radio stations. Crazy.

This recipe was probably the easiest of the week. My family is mostly Italian in origin and these pizzelles have been a family tradition for as long as I can remember! While traditionally made at Christmas time in Italy, we used to make them year round. My brother could smell these from a mile away and would come running each time my mom made them! They’re his favorite! To recreate these gluten free, all I did was swap the flour in them with Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 blend! And you can’t even tell the difference! They’re perfect!
