Sweet, fruity, and delicious. These apple fritter rings are everything any sweet tooth would need to kick off their perfect day.
- 4 apples
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg
- Olive oil (for frying)
- Additional sugar and cinnamon for topping (optional)
1. Begin by peeling and coring the apples. Cut each apple into thick rings, about 1/2 inch thick.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and sugar.
3. In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and stir in the milk.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.
5. Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
6. Dip each apple ring into the batter, making sure to coat it completely.
7. Carefully place the coated apple rings into the hot oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
8. Once cooked, remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess oil.
9. If desired, mix together some additional sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle this mixture over the warm fritters for an extra burst of sweetness and flavor.
10. Serve the apple fritter rings warm and enjoy as a delicious dessert or snack. These can also be served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a tasty twist. Enjoy!
