Ingredients for Mom’s Apple Fritters:

  • 200g (1 1/2 cups) plain flour / all-purpose flour
  • 150ml (2/3 cup) whole milk
  • 2 whole eggs
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 sachet (1 teaspoon) baking powder
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 2 large sweet apples
  • 80g (1/3 cup) brown sugar
  • Icing sugar / powdered sugar, as needed
  • Vegetable oil for frying, as needed

How to make Mom’s Apple Fritters:

  1. Put the milk, eggs, half the brown sugar and a pinch of salt in a bowl (or in the bowl of a planetary mixer if you have one) and mix well.
  2. Once the ingredients are combined, add the sifted flour with the baking powder to the bowl and mix well with a hand whisk or with the planetary mixer’s leaf tool.
  3. Peel the apples and core them with a apple remover (so that the apples remain whole), then peel and slice them, creating perforated rounds in the center, about an inch thick.
  4. Spread the apple slices on a plate and sprinkle them with lemon juice to prevent them from oxidizing and turning black after a few minutes.
  5. Heat plenty of frying oil in a frying pan and when the oil is up to temperature, take out the apple rounds one at a time, dip them first in the batter and then fry them for a few moments until golden brown.
  6. As you fry the apple fritters, place them on a tray lined with paper towels to dry them from the oil as much as possible.
  7. When you have finished frying, coat them in brown sugar, making it stick to both sides.
  8. Sprinkle the surface of the pancakes with a dusting of powdered sugar and then you can serve them on the table.
