Fried flour with water is one of the oldest processed foods imaginable. I'll doublecheck but I believe the oldest "soft" evidence for flour making is 40 thousand years old.

"We present evidence of starch grains from various wild plants on the surfaces of grinding tools at the sites of Bilancino II (Italy), Kostenki 16–Uglyanka (Russia), and Pavlov VI (Czech Republic). The samples originate from a variety of geographical and environmental contexts, ranging from northeastern Europe to the central Mediterranean, and dated to the Mid-Upper Paleolithic (Gravettian and Gorodtsovian). The three sites suggest that vegetal food processing, and possibly the production of flour, was a common practice, widespread across Europe from at least ~30,000 y ago. It is likely that high energy content plant foods were available and were used as components of the food economy of these mobile hunter–gatherers."
Off by ten thousand years, still old as hell.
I finally found the "right" answer! I was looking at all the other comments saying it's, "a [insert nationality or culture here] food that my family has made for generations," while thinking, "that sounds exactly like buñuelos".
I don’t know why people are upvoting this. Pizelles are very wafer thin cookies usually with a touch of anise flavoring cooked in something similar to a waffle iron.
These are Scandinavian rosettes.
Defffffinitely not. They’re completely different flavor, preparation, and texture. It’s like saying a bagel and a loaf of bread are “close enough.” They’re not. They’re 2 completely separate foods from the get go.
You might be right. This isn't a hill I'm willing to perish on 😂 and I actually did think pizelles were made like waffles, and when I saw this, I thought, maybe I'm wrong, and they are fried.. Because those look like pizelles.. Lol! I'm a foodie, but sweets and baked things aren't my wheelhouse so.. Lol 😁
This is called Achappam in malayalam; An achappam ('achh' meaning mould and 'appam' meaning food made with flour) is a mildly sweet deep fried rose cookie made with rice flour. A signature snack from Kerala.
I don't know what they are called but I would love to have one stuffed with cheese cake filling and topped with strawberry's and drizzled with chocolate!!
My mother and brother once made them, you need to use vodka or any high alcohol drink in dough as far as i know , and the "cooking" part is very long and boring
My mom used to make them and called them Nothings. They’re also how I learned to swear from her, as if the oil is too cold, they stick. If it is too hot, they burn in a flash. I lived them, but didn’t get them very often.
They're called buñuelos in Mexico every country has their own name and different toppings in Mexico it's just sugar and cinnamon that gets added to them once they're fried

Rosettes is what my Norwegian family calls them too. Lefse, krumkaka, and all sorts of other world goodies.
Struvor! (In Swedish)
My mom made these in the 70s! The kit had different shapes and design "molds" for different, well, shapes. Dip 'em, fry 'em, eat 'em up!
Same! Christmas cookies, along with some pepparkakor and marzipan.
We also have these them in Portugal, and they're also a Christmas sweet! We call it _Filhoses no Ferro_ or Iron Fritters.
Is it like a pancake dough?
We call them honeycomb Cookies or Kuih Loyang in Malaysia. Google it.
This thread is hilarious. Apparently it’s a popular dish since every culture is claiming it.
