Why do you have to soak?

By soaking the raisins, you prevent the dry fruit from drawing moisture out of the batter or dough, so that the Oliebollen dry out more quickly.

Easily soak raisins for oliebollen

Soaking raisins for oliebollen is easiest if you take a container that will comfortably hold the raisins. Then add some lukewarm water to the bowl so that the raisins are completely submerged. At Dapeppa we always leave the raisins for about 10 minutes. The raisins then absorb the water well. We call this process soaking. After ten minutes the raisins are soft and you drain them. Let them drain for a while. You no longer need the water. You can then mix the soaked raisins in your oliebollen mix.
