Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate large bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, vanilla, milk, and oil until smooth.
Step 4: Combine
Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the diced apples. The batter should be thick but scoopable.
Step 5: Shape Fritters
Drop spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Optional: Sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on top for extra flavor.
Step 6: Bake
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 7: Glaze (Optional)
While fritters are cooling, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to make a glaze.
Drizzle over warm fritters before serving.
Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with coffee, tea, or a glass of milk.
Top with a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for a dessert version.
Sprinkle extra cinnamon sugar if desired.
