APPLE FRITTERS

Steps:

• Apple Fritters:
• Peel, core and cut the apple into very small
• pieces, place into a small bowl and set aside.
• Stir the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt together in a bowl.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg and milk together.
• Slowly add and mix in the dry ingredients.
• Stir in the diced apples.
• Place a medium size, heavy bottom, deep sided sauce pan on the stovetop.
• Pour in enough cooking oil to measure 2 inches deep.
• Warm the oil over medium-high heat and bring to 350F. on a thermometer.
• Make about 3 or 4 fritters at a time by dropping rounded teaspoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Use long tongs to flip them over once or twice and cook about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown in color.
• Work in small batches so they do not burn.
• Line a plate with paper towels or brown paper and use tongs to remove the cooked fritters from oil to drain.
• Glaze:
• Combine milk and vanilla in a small sauce pan
• and place over low heat until warm.
• Stir the confectioners' sugar into milk mixture.
• Whisk slowly, until well combined.
• Dip doughnuts into the glaze,1 at a time, and set on a cooling rack to drain.
