Warm Baked Apple Fritters
Soft, golden baked apple fritters filled with juicy apples and warm cinnamon, topped with a sweet vanilla glaze for the ultimate cozy treat.
Ingredients
- All-Purpose Flour: 2 cups – The base that gives structure and softness.
- Baking Powder: 2 teaspoons – Helps the fritters rise fluffy and light.
- Salt: 1/2 teaspoon – Balances the sweetness and enhances flavor.
- Ground Cinnamon: 1 teaspoon – Infuses warm, aromatic spice.
- Granulated Sugar: 1/2 cup – Sweetens the fritter dough.
- Eggs: 2 large – Binds everything together with richness.
- Milk: 1/2 cup – Adds moisture and smooth texture.
- Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon – Gives a subtle sweet aroma and flavor depth.
- Unsalted Butter (melted): 1/4 cup – Adds buttery richness and moisture.
- Diced Apples: 1 and 1/2 cups – Bring juicy texture and sweet-tart flavor.
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In one bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and sugar. In another bowl, mix eggs, milk, vanilla, and melted butter. Pour wet into dry and stir until just combined.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Scoop batter onto the baking sheet using a cookie scoop or spoon, spacing them evenly.
- Assemble the Dish: Press extra diced apples on top for more texture and visual appeal.
- Cook to Perfection: Bake for 14–16 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Finishing Touches: While warm, drizzle with glaze made from powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla.
- Serve and Enjoy: Let cool slightly, then enjoy warm with coffee or tea.
Notes
- Use firm apples like Granny Smith for best texture.
- Don’t overmix the batter to keep fritters light.
- Glaze while warm for best absorption and shine.
- Reheat leftovers in oven for a crisp texture revival.
