Apple Fritter Rings
Description
This recipe begins by heating canola oil to 350°F for frying. The batter combines all-purpose flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, sugar, and salt, mixed with eggs and buttermilk to create a smooth, fluffy coating. Apples, either Fuji or Granny Smith, are sliced into rings using biscuit cutters to achieve consistent sizes. These apple rings are dipped in the batter, drained of excess, and fried carefully until golden on both sides. The fritters maintain a soft, tender, and chewy texture due to the pancake-style batter and the natural moisture of the apples. Served immediately, often with a dusting of powdered sugar and extra cinnamon, they offer a warm, spiced dessert or snack with a balance of tart and sweet flavors.

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup sugar

- 2 egg large
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 6 apple Fuji or Grannysmith

Instructions

- In a bowl, add the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, sugar and salt.
- Add in the the egg and buttermilk and whisk until just combined.
- Using the biscuit cutters, cut out rings of apples in varying sizes and dip them into the batter.
- Carefully lift the rings out the batter and let them drip off any excess batter.
