Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2/3 cup milk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chopped apples (peeled and cored)
Vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Batter

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the chopped apples.

Step 2: Fry the Fritters

In a deep skillet or pot, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350�F (175�C).

Using a spoon or small scoop, drop the batter into the hot oil, a few fritters at a time. Do not overcrowd the skillet.

Fry the fritters for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Use a slotted spoon to remove the fritters and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 3: Glaze the Fritters

In a small bowl, mix together 1 cup of powdered sugar and 2-3 tablespoons of milk until smooth.

While the fritters are still warm, dip them into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.

Place the glazed fritters on a wire rack to set.
