Ingredients
- 3 medium Apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 25 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 Large egg
- 200 milliliters Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 50 grams Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples into rings about 5mm thick. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix in the milk and vanilla extract.
Step 4
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep saucepan or frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F). Test the temperature using a thermometer or by dropping in a small amount of batter; it should sizzle and float to the surface.
Step 6
Dip the apple slices into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated, and carefully place them into the hot oil one at a time. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
Step 7
Fry the apple fritters in batches, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining apple slices and batter.
Step 9
Dust the fritters generously with powdered sugar before serving. Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
