This is one of my favorite dishes ever. Every time I make a batch, it's gone in minutes

Ingredients:

1.5 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons applesauce

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/3 cup milk

2 large eggs

2 large apples, peeled, cored, and diced

Vegetable oil for frying

For the Glaze:

1/4 cup milk

2 cups powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.

Integrate applesauce and cinnamon, mixing thoroughly.

Whisk milk and eggs in a separate bowl, then add to dry ingredients, stirring until a uniform batter is achieved.

Gently incorporate the diced apples.

Heat vegetable oil (about 2 inches deep) in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 375°F.

Scoop and drop dollops of batter into the hot oil, frying until they achieve a golden-brown color and ensuring thorough cooking, about 2-3 minutes per side. Work in batches to prevent overcrowding.

Use a slotted spoon to remove fritters from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

For the Glaze:

Mix milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, ensuring a smooth, pourable consistency.

Generously drizzle the glaze over warm fritters.
