Ingredients
- 200 g gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 50 g granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 180 ml milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 medium apples
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 500 ml vegetable oil
- 50 g powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
Peel and core the apples, then dice them into small cubes. Toss the apple cubes with lemon juice to prevent browning and set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the egg, then add the milk and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
Step 4
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the diced apples, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed skillet or saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Step 6
Using a spoon or small scoop, carefully drop dollops of batter into the hot oil, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the fritters in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Step 8
While still warm, dust the fritters with powdered sugar.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your gluten-free apple fritters while they are fresh and warm.
