Ingredients
Units Scale
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 🙂
