Instructions
1. Make the dough
- In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, whisk milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until just mixed (don’t overmix).
- Fold in the diced apples.
2. Fry the fritters
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until it reaches ~350°F (175°C).
- Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, drop batter into the hot oil (don’t overcrowd the pan).
- Fry 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
3. Glaze the fritters
- In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Drizzle the glaze over warm fritters or dip each fritter in the glaze.
Tips
- Extra cinnamon flavor: Add a pinch of nutmeg to the dough.
- Crunch factor: Roll diced apples in a little cinnamon sugar before folding into the batter.
- Make ahead: You can keep fritters in an airtight container for 1–2 days; reheat slightly in the oven to refresh crispiness.
If you want, I can also give you a no-fry version that’s just as big, fluffy, and soft, baked in the oven instead—less messy but still delicious.
Do you want me to share that version too?
