Step 3
To make the cinnamon sugar mixture, mix the cinnamon and caster sugar together in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside
Step 4
Heat a medium saucepan with vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Step 5
Using a tablespoon to scoop into the dough to form a rough ball shape and carefully drop into the hot oil. Fry in batches until they turn golden brown in colour, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and place onto a lined plate with paper to remove any excess oil. Repeat until all the dough has been fried.

Transfer the zeppole to a larger bowl and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar all over. Gently toss the zeppole, making sure they are completely coated in the cinnamon sugar.
