Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples: Granny Smith or Honeycrisp are ideal for their firmness and tartness.
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup milk: You can use regular milk or almond milk for a dairy-free option.
- 1 egg: Alternatively, use a flaxseed egg for a vegan version.
- Oil for frying: Vegetable oil or any neutral oil works best.
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare Apples: Core and slice the apples into rings about 1/4 inch thick. This thickness ensures they cook evenly and maintain a good texture.
- Make Batter:
- In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg until well combined.
- Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until you achieve a smooth batter.
- Heat Oil: Pour oil into a deep pan to a depth that allows the apple rings to float. Heat over medium heat until the oil reaches about 350°F (175°C).
- Fry Rings:
- Dip each apple ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
- Carefully place the battered rings into the hot oil, frying until golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes per side.
- Drain & Dust:
- Remove the rings from the oil and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Dust with powdered sugar while still warm for an extra sweet touch.
