Apple Fritters
Want your home to smell like a snow-covered log cabin deep in a pine forest with a herd of deer nuzzling each other nearby? Deep fried apples and cinnamon will do the trick! This is a quick, simple recipe that is great for breakfast, brunch, or dessert.
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup milk
2 whole eggs
2 tbs melted butter
2 cups finely diced apples
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Mix flour, baking powder, sugar and cinnamon together in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix milk, eggs, butter. Add to dry ingredients, mix lightly. Fold in apples.
Use a small scooper to scoop out rounds balls and drop into heated oil. Cook 4-5 fritters at a time.
Fry in oil 350-355 degrees. Cook 4-5 minutes until fritters are golden brown. Test one to make certain the fritter is cooked through.
Drain on a baking rack. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Enjoy!
