Instructions
- Add diced peaches to a medium bowl and add lemon juice and mix. Set aside.
- Add all flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and kosher salt to a medium-sized bowl whisk, and set aside. Add eggs, melted (cooled) butter, milk, almond extract, to a large bowl and whisk and set aside.
- Add vegetable oil to a large saucepan and heat over medium-high heat.
- Add whisked dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently mix together until well combined, but don't over mix. Gently fold in the diced peaches.
- When oil reaches 375 degrees, measured by either a thermometer or the wooden spoon test (see recipe notes), use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to add 2-3 fritters into the hot oil at a time.
- Fry for about 2-4 minutes on each side, flipping in the oil until both sides are golden brown. You'll know they're done if you insert a small knife into the center and it comes clean. If not, fry a little longer so that the center is fully cooked. This time will depend on the size of your fritter and the temperature of your oil.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove from oil, shake off any excess, and place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels and a cooling rack. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
Glaze
- Add confectioner's sugar, almond extract, and milk to a small bowl and whisk until smooth.
- Drizzle on fritters.
- Enjoy!!

Notes
- Storage
- Storage
- These are best eaten fresh but will last 1-2 days on the counter in an airtight container, or in the fridge for up to 1 week. To reheat, you can pop 'em in the oven set at 350 degrees for about 8 minutes.
- Substitutions
- Substitutions
- Frozen Peaches: Fully thaw frozen peaches and then dice them into even-sized pieces.
- Canned Peaches: Drain well before using and then dice before folding them into the batter.
- Salt: If using regular table salt, just a pinch.
- Almond Extract: You could use vanilla, but trust me, the almond and peach flavors together are what make these fritters!
- Milk: We always use 2% but you can use another % or even non-dairy milk.
- Glaze: Use your favorite go-to! Although the almond in this glaze really is so delightful. Also, you can substitute water for the milk in this glaze.
- Frying Tips
- Frying Tips
- The size of your fritter will alter the cooking time. Whatever size cup you use, keep the size of the fritters consistent, at least the ones that are in the pan together to ensure even cooking.
- Be sure that your oil doesn't get too hot. This will burn your batter and leave you with undercooked fritters. Keep the temp at a medium-low once it reaches 375 degrees.
- Wooden Spoon Test
- Wooden Spoon Test
- To test to see if your oil is hot enough for frying without a thermometer, grab your wooden spoon a put the end of it into the oil. If the oil bubbles around it, it's ready! If it bubbles too hard, it's too hot and you will want to cool the oil a little and then test again.
