Apple Fritter Batter
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
½ cup milk
¼ cup melted butter or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups apples, peeled and finely diced
Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
2–3 tablespoons milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Ezoic
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Pan
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until evenly combined.
Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4: Make the Batter
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Fold in the diced apples gently, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 5: Bake the Fritters
Drop mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping slightly if needed. Bake for 14–16 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
Notes
Dice apples small for even baking and better texture.
Do not overmix the batter to keep fritters tender.
Use firm apples like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji.
For extra color, broil for 1–2 minutes after baking (watch closely).
