Ingredients
Fritter Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar can substitute with coconut sugar for a healthier option
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk can be dairy or non-dairy
- 1 large egg
- Vegetable oil for frying or use coconut oil if preferred
Apples
- 2 large apples, chopped preferably Granny Smith for tartness
For Serving
- Powdered sugar for dusting the more, the merrier!
Instructions
Preparation
- In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped apples.
Cooking
- Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat (around 350°F).
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Remove fritters and drain on paper towels then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
Let the batter rest for a few minutes before frying for fluffiness. These can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. They also freeze well and can be reheated in the oven on low to regain their crispiness.
