Ingredients

Scale

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
1 cup Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped
Vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well mixed.
In another bowl, beat milk and eggs until frothy. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined.
Fold in chopped apples carefully to distribute evenly.
Heat about two inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil without overcrowding the pan. Fry each side for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Transfer fried fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
