Ingredients
  

For the Fritters

  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 cup milk

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs and milk.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Gently fold in the chopped apples.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).
  • Carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, frying about 3-4 fritters at a time. Do not overcrowd the pan.
  • Fry for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a wire rack set over paper towels to drain.
  • While the fritters are cooling slightly, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the warm fritters.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

These fritters are best enjoyed fresh. For an extra touch, you can sprinkle them with additional cinnamon sugar after glazing.
