Apple Fritters serve chunks of juicy apples in fried batter drizzled with vanilla icing. A delicious treat any time of day!
I grew up eating apple fritters that my Mom made in a big pot of boiling oil on the back stove burner. She also made funnel cakes the same way.
Drizzle in the batter and watch it like a hawk.
No thermometers ever. Not even for human fevers at our house. Wrist to the forehead, check for glassy eyes and flushed cheeks. Pure old school.
I have to admit I’m more comfortable with my thermostat controls on my mini fryer. I can do it old school but sometimes technology wins.
Lightly fried and drizzled with icing is my favorite way to eat them. You can dust these with powdered sugar too!
Ingredients
- oil for deep frying
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup sugar (I used Imperial Sugar)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup milk
- 1 cup apples, peeled and chopped
- 1 cup powdered sugar (i used Imperial Sugar)
- 1 to 2 Tablespoons water or milk
Instructions
- Cream together butter, sugar and vanilla.
- Add eggs and beat until fluffy.
- Combine flour, baking powder and salt.
- Alternate adding a bit of flour mixture with adding milk.
- Stir in apples
- Fry at 365 degrees, about 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Remove and to drain off excess grease place fritters on paper towels.
- Mix together powdered sugar and water as needed to get drizzle consistency. Drizzle over fritters.
