Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 large Egg white
• 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0 Non-stick cooking spray
• 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly coat the parchment with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, granulated sugar, egg white, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredient mixture, stirring gently until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to maintain a tender texture.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and shape it into a flat rectangle about 1/3 inch thick.

Step 6

Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into thin strips approximately 1/2 inch wide to resemble fries.

Step 7

Carefully place the strips onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between each one.

Step 8

Lightly spray the top of the fritter fries with non-stick cooking spray and bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crisp.

Step 9

Remove the fritter fries from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. If desired, dust with powdered sugar for extra sweetness.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your Sweet Cinnamon Fritter Fries!
