Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.75 cup Milk
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 medium Apples (peeled, cored, and diced)
• 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
• 0 Powdered sugar or glaze (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 5

In a deep, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature.

Step 6

Using two spoons or a small cookie scoop, drop dollops of batter (about 2 tablespoons each) into the hot oil. Fry a few fritters at a time, being careful not to overcrowd the pot.

Step 7

Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to turn them over and ensure even frying.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining batter, allowing the oil to return to the proper temperature between batches.

Step 10

Serve warm and dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple glaze if desired. Enjoy your Canadian Apple Fritters fresh!
