Apple Fritters

Ingredients

• 2 medium apples
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 large egg
• ½ cup milk
• 2 cups vegetable oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel and core the 2 apples, then chop into small 1/2 inch pieces. Set aside.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 cup flour, 2 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp baking powder, and 1 tsp cinnamon.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, beat the 1 egg and 0.5 cup milk. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; the batter should be lumpy.

4. 4

   Fold the chopped apples into the batter until evenly coated.

5. 5

   Heat the 2 cups vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high until a drop of batter sizzles, about 350°F. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, frying in batches without crowding.

6. 6

   Fry each fritter until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve warm.

7. 7

   Optional: dust with extra sugar or cinnamon before serving.
