Homemade Apple Fritters have an enticing aroma when cooking and once you bite in, you will say Yum!
Apple Fritters
Peel and grate the apple a small bowl.
Measure and stir all the dry ingredients together in a medium sized bowl.
Beat the egg and milk together. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix with a fork, add the grated apple and stir with a fork until combined.
In a medium sized pot on the stovetop, heat about 1-inch of coconut oil. Bring the temperature up to 350 degrees. This is very hot so be careful not to have it splash on your skin when cooking the fritters.
Once the oil reaches temperature, drop the batter into the oil with tablespoon. You can shape the fritters as you are dropping in the batter. Cook the fritter until it is brown on the first side then using your tongs, flip them over and cook the other side. It will take about 3-4 minutes to cook through and it is fine to flip them more than once.
Have a plate lined with paper towels ready and use your tongs to lift each fritter out and put onto the paper towel to drain.
Continue until all the fritters are cooked.
Glaze
Mix together the confectioners sugar, vanilla and add the milk in increments. Stir with a fork and add enough milk to give you a glazing consistency.
Using a pastry brush, paint the glaze onto each fritter.
