Apple Fritter Bites

3:31 PM


Apple Fritter Bites are chopped apples mingled in a sweet dough fried in bite-sized pieces and then dunked in a thick vanilla glaze.  They are little bites of heaven.




This is the second Apple Fritter recipe I have posted.  

This recipe is more about how many it makes and the size of the fritter.  

It makes around a dozen or so and comes together really quick.  

Just the right amount to make for my husband and me....coffee and Apple Fritters go together, don't you think?



These were really good.  Although, I think the next time I make these Apple Fritter Bites, I will double the apples.  

We like them real applely....Is that a real word...hehe!




WHERE CAN I FIND THE RECIPE?  TAKE ME TO THE RECIPE FOR APPLE FRITTER BITES.


Below under the next heading, I give a list of preferred ingredients, tips, and cooking instructions for the Apple Fritter Bites and similar recipe ideas you can have.

Or you can scroll down to the bottom, where you will find a full printable recipe card with amounts of the ingredients and complete instructions with notes.


WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE APPLE FRITTER BITES



  • Large heavy bottom pan

  •  Flour

  • Sugar

  • Baking Powder

  • Cinnamon

  • Salt

  • Whole milk

  • Whole eggs

  • Butter

  • Vanilla

  • Apples

  • Powdered sugar

  • Half and half milk

  • Oil for frying


HOW TO MAKE APPLE FRITTERS



  • In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; set aside. 

  • In a small bowl, stir together milk, egg, vanilla, and butter until the egg is mixed well. 

  • Pour into dry ingredients and only stir until all ingredients are incorporated; add apples and fold in gently. 

  • Heat oil around 365 degrees and drop in oil with a small cookie scooper being careful not to overcrowd. 

  • Once in the grease bubbles, turn fritters over and flatten a little and fry until golden brown. It takes about 35 seconds on each side with this size. 

  • Adjust the cooking time on the fritter's size and the oil's temperature.

  • In a small bowl, mix together powdered sugar and milk until smooth and creamy; set aside.  

  • When golden brown, remove the fritters from the hot oil and lay on a sheet pan lined with paper towels.  

  • When slightly cooled, dip in the glaze and place on a wire rack over a sheet pan to let the excess drip off.  

  • Eat warm.  Enjoy!

  • I had to flatten mine a little to get them done before they browned too much. I only heated enough oil that the fritters did not float too much.

  14. I am so excited about making these! they are my favorite kind of apple indulgence and I too will increase the apples inside! we have a local grocery store with a phenomenal bakery where we get their 8" diameter apple fritters on Saturday mornings. Only thing is, there are NO apples in them. They are so good though. Making my own now but I will make them small!

  19. These are seriously amazing! I'm in Australia and have been dying for something fall! (originally from PA) These definitely hit the spot! I added a little over 2 cups of apples to mine to take your note; you're right, so good! I used Pink Lady apples so they were a bit sweeter than, say, a red delicious etc. but amazing nonetheless. Thanks for this! I will definitely be making more of these :)

  22. You mentioned wanting to double the amount of apples in this recipe. Is the 1 1/2 cups called for in the recipe already doubled, or would you increase it to 3 cups?
