By blum099

Ingredients

• 1 heaping cup AP flour
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 2 tsp. baking soda
• dash salt
• 1 - 2 tsp. cinnamon (depending on how much you love cinnamon)
• 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla
• 1 T. butter, melted
• 1 egg
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1 - 1 1/2 cups chopped apple, your favorite kind for eating, peanut sized or smaller
• oil for frying
• milk and powdered sugar glaze for dipping or just powdered sugar for dusting
• (About 1 cup pwd. sugar + 1 T. milk or more)

Preparation

Step 1

Mix all dry ingredients together, slowly add the wet ingredients minus the apple. Carefully mix until well combined but not overly beat,gently fold in apple pieces. The batter should be the consistency of a light cake mix. Once the oil is read (when a test drop of dough floats to the top of the oil) then using a cookie scooper or soup spoon, place a few balls of dough into the oil. Be careful not to overcrowd and watch carefully for the underside to turn golden brown, then gently flip over and continue frying until done. I cooked mine about 45 seconds per side, but they were the size of golf balls - adjust cooking times based on size of fritters and temperature of your oil. It is always a good idea to test one to ensure it comes out like you are expecting.
