In a mixing bowl beat the eggs with the sugar, add two spoons of rum and the flour. Mix until you obtain a smooth and firm paste.

Grate the lemon zest and add it to the mixture with a pinch of baking powder.

Collect a spoonful of paste and fry it in hot oil until golden.

Let the oil drain from your castagnole on kitchen paper and, as final touch, dust with icing sugar. Serve while warm.
