– 2 large apples, peeled, cored, and diced
– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 2/3 cup milk
– 2 eggs, lightly beaten
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, combine milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined—don’t overmix, darlings; a few lumps are okay.
5. Fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Drop 1/4 cup (or less for smaller) of batter onto baking sheet and make sure there’s space for your fritters.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they’re golden brown and center is set.
8. Let the fritters cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
9. Dust with powdered sugar before serving if desired.
