Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp. butter, melted
  • 2 Granny Smith apples, cored, peeled & cubed
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/4 cup milk

Instructions

    1. Heat up oil in pan or fryer to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the eggs, vanilla, milk, and butter. Whisk the wet ingredients together in the center.
    2. Then, using a spatula, fold the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined.
    3. Fold the apples into the batter.
    4. Add about 1 tablespoon of batter into the heated oil. It should take about 30 seconds for each side of the fritters to become golden brown. Any less and they will be doughy on the inside. Much more and they will get soggy. Once golden brown remove from the oil and set on paper towel to drain.
    5. As the fritters are frying, whisk together the powdered sugar, salt, vanilla, and milk, adjusting powdered sugar and milk accordingly until the desired consistency is reached. Dip the fritters into the sugar and allow to cool on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
