Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples, such as Honeycrisp or Granny Smith
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Peel, core, and slice the apples into 1/4-inch thick rings. Set aside your apple fritter rings.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar for the apple fritter ring batter.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix the homemade apple fritter rings batter.
- Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
- Dip each apple ring into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
- Carefully place the battered apple rings into the hot oil, frying a few at a time to avoid overcrowding the deep-fried apple slices.
- Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. These crispy apple fritters cook quickly.
- Remove the apple fritter rings with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- While the apple fritter rings are still warm, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm apple fritter rings. Serve your dessert apple fritter rings immediately.
Notes
- For best results, use firm apples that hold their shape when cooked.
- Adjust the amount of milk in the glaze to reach your desired consistency.
- These quick apple fritter rings are best enjoyed fresh.
- You can add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter for apple fritter rings with cinnamon.
- For an easy apple fritter ring recipe, ensure your oil is at the correct temperature.
