How to Make Awesome Apple Fritters
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In a separate bowl, combine the applesauce, milk, eggs, and melted butter. Mix well.
- Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Peel and dice the apples into small, bite-sized pieces. Fold them gently into the batter.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
- Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
- Dust with powdered sugar while still warm and serve immediately. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
