How to Make Irresistible Amish Apple Fritters

  • Prepare the Apples: Begin by peeling and finely dicing or shredding the apples. Set them aside for a moment to soak up all that goodness.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, and lemon juice until it's a smooth blend.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Merge Together: Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Fold in the apples until just combined.
  • Heat the Oil: In a deep pot, heat the oil to around 350°F. Monitor carefully.
  • Fry the Fritters: Drop large spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, frying for about 3 minutes on each side.
  • Drain and Cool: Remove fritters and let them drain on a wire rack.
  • Make the Glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract, and milk.
  • Glaze the Fritters: Dip each fritter into the glaze, then place them back on the wire rack.
  • Optional: Dust with extra confectioners’ sugar for a beautiful finish!

Notes

Store fritters in an airtight container; they can last up to 2 days at room temperature or 5 days in the fridge.
