Apple Fritters
Apple Fritters combine a textured batter with chunks of peeled, cored Fuji apples and cinnamon, fried to golden brown crispiness. The fritters are then dipped in a glossy glaze made from confectioners' sugar, milk, and corn syrup, balancing the warm spice and sweetness. Their soft inside and slightly crisp exterior make them delightful for breakfast or dessert. Cooking in batches using a 1/4-cup scoop helps maintain even cooking and size consistency.
