Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced apples, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of sugar, and cook 4–5 minutes until slightly softened. Set aside to cool.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs with the buttermilk (or milk) and vanilla.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; a few lumps are fine. Fold in the cooked apples.
  5. In a deep pan or Dutch oven, heat 2–3 inches of oil to 350–360°F (175–182°C).
  6. Drop about ¼ cup of batter per fritter into the hot oil with a spoon or small scoop. Fry 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown. Lift out with a slotted spoon and drain on a wire rack over a baking sheet.
  7. Whisk the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth and pourable, adding more milk or sugar as needed.
  8. While the fritters are still slightly warm, dip them in the glaze or drizzle it over. Let set a few minutes before serving.
