Sagra delle frittelle

San Donato in Collina is the undisputed kingdom of frittelle, a traditional sweet pastry that for over thirty years has represented the gastronomic identity of this enchanting Tuscan location. The Sagra delle frittelle, which runs from January to March, celebrates this delicious batter that has made this small village famous, earning it the prestigious title of ‹Paese delle frittelle› (The Land of Fritters). An event that brings together tradition, authentic flavors, and the passion of a community dedicated to preserving a recipe passed down through generations. The frittelle of San Donato in Collina are a masterpiece of simplicity and taste: a batter prepared fresh with noble ingredients such as rice, milk, sugar, orange, and raisins, scrupulously following the traditional recipe. The magic lies in the contrast between the soft interior and the crispy exterior, a characteristic that makes them irresistible to the palate. Each fritter is the result of expertise, dedication, and love for the craft. During the festival, visitors can savor these delights directly from those who prepare them with passion, paired with a glass of vin santo, the perfect pairing that enhances the flavors. An unmissable opportunity to discover an authentic culinary tradition and immerse yourself in Tuscan gastronomic culture.
