A feast day amid Lent, Saint Joseph’s Day on March 19 is especially popular within the Italian-American community, where it’s traditionally celebrated by eating zeppole. A treat dating back to ancient Rome, zeppole are made with deep-fried dough stuffed with custard, pastry cream, or jelly.

All zeppole get dusted with powdered sugar, and they are usually topped with more filling and a cherry or other fruit. While some Chicago spots offer them year-round, they’re mostly baked just for this week. These are some of the top spots to find them throughout the city and suburbs.
