Apple Fritters

Makes: 2

Cooking Time: 30 min

What You'll Need:

3 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons granulated sugar

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 3/4 cup milk

1 egg

1 cup vegetable oil

4 to 5 apples, peeled, cored, and cut in 1/4-inch-thick round slices

1 cup confectioners' sugar

What To Do:

1. In a large bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, milk, and egg; mix well.

2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Dip apple slices into batter, one at a time, then place in oil.

3. Cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until golden on both sides. Drain on a paper towel-lined platter.

4. Place confectioners' sugar in a shallow dish. Carefully dip hot fritters in sugar, coating completely. Serve immediately.

Note: If the batter becomes too thick, be sure to add a tablespoon or two of milk to achieve the desired consistency.
