HOT APPLE FRITTERS
2 cups of unbleached all purpose
fl our
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon of salt
2/3 cup of sugar
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 Tablespoons of melted butter
1 cup of milk
3 medium sized apples, peeled,
cored, and diced
canola oil for frying (about a quart)
cinnamon sugar for topping
confectioners' sugar for dusting
1. Whisk together the fl our, baking
powder, salt, and sugar in a medi-
um sized bowl.
2. In a measuring cup, whisk to-
gether the milk, melted butter, eggs,
and vanilla extract.
3. Slowly mix the wet mixture with
the dry mixture until the mixture is
completely moistened. Gently stir
in the diced apples.
4. Heat the canola oil to 375 F. Using
a cookie scoop or a teaspoons, drop
the batter into the hot oil. Use a slot-
ted spoon to turn them after about
a minute. Cook until golden brown.
Make sure to regulate the heat to
keep it at 375 F, this way the fritters
will cook all of the way through!
- Use the slotted spoon to remove
the fritters from the hot oil and
place on a paper towel lined plate.
As soon as they are slightly cooled,
quickly roll them in the cinnamon
sugar. Repeat with the rest of the
batter. Sprinkle the warm fritters
with powdered sugar. Make sure to
enjoy them warm!
