🍏🇭🇺 Hungarian Apple Fritters (Alma pongyolában)

🔥 Instructions

1. Prepare the Apples

  • Peel, core, and slice apples into rings (~½ inch thick).
  • Optional: soak in lemon water for a few minutes to prevent browning.

2. Make the Batter

  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add egg, milk, and vanilla extract; mix until smooth. Batter should be slightly thick but coat the apples well.

3. Heat the Oil

  • Pour oil into a deep skillet (enough to cover half the apple rings).
  • Heat to medium-high (~350°F / 175°C).

4. Fry the Fritters

  • Dip each apple ring into the batter, letting excess drip off.
  • Carefully place in hot oil and fry 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  • Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. Serve

  • Dust with powdered sugar while warm.
  • Optional: drizzle with honey or serve with vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.

Tips

  • Use slightly tart apples (like Granny Smith) for balanced sweetness.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan — fry in batches for even cooking.
  • Keep finished fritters warm in a low oven while frying the rest.
  • Serve fresh for the best texture — crispy outside, soft inside.
