Breads, Flatbreads and Savory Pastries

Ciambella is an Italian ring shaped cake with many regional variations in ingredients and preparation, a basic version made from flour, baking powder, salt, eggs, milk or cream, sugar, oil and vanilla, sometimes sweetened with honey, and baked in a ring shaped pan after the sugar and eggs are whisked together with the oil and milk. Common flavorings include lemon, orange, chocolate, hazelnuts and vanilla, and the finished cake may be decorated with powdered sugar, nuts, apricot jelly or pistachios.
