ABOUT THE RECIPE
Ever feel like treating yourself to something that’s a mix of comfort and a touch of fancy? These fluffy apple fritters are just that! They’re packed with juicy apple chunks, fried to golden perfection, and then topped with a mouthwatering lemon vanilla glaze. It’s the kind of snack that feels like a warm hug, perfect for cozy mornings or as a delightful dessert to share with friends. Trust me, once you try these, they’ll become your go-to treat!
How to serve
They’re best enjoyed fresh and warm, right out of the frying pan, with the glaze still slightly gooey and dripping down the sides. Pair them with a hot cup of coffee or tea for a perfect morning pick-me-up. If you’re feeling extra indulgent, a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side turns these fritters into an irresistible dessert.
How to store
If you have leftovers (which I doubt!), store these fritters in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For the best experience, reheat them in the oven at a low temperature.

Apple Fritters with Lemon Vanilla Glaze
- Total Time: 30 min
- Yield: 12 fritters 1x
Description
Recommended Equipment
- small pot
- cooling rack
- two bowls
- whisk
- sharp knife
- cutting board
- small bowl
Ingredients
BATTER
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 apples
- fat for frying
GLAZE
- 65 grams powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp milk
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Heat frying fat in a small pot to around 175°C / 350°F. Prepare a cooling rack with some paper towels underneath to catch any excess oil when the fritters are done.
- Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In another mixing bowl, crack the egg and whisk it together with milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Set aside.
- Peel, core, and dice the apples into small pieces. Set aside.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick batter forms. Then, add the apple pieces and mix everything together again.
- Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, frying each side for about 2-3 minutes, depending on thickness. I used about 1 heaping tablespoon of batter per fritter. Place the fritters on the cooling rack to drain any excess oil.
- While the fritters are frying, mix powdered sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a small bowl to create a thick glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the fritters. I think they taste best when warm, so feel free to enjoy them right away 🙂
