Ingredients
Scale
- Apples (Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Fuji)
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 Egg
- 1/2 cup Milk (whole or plant-based)
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for serving, optional)
- Additional cinnamon sugar (for serving, optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Apples: Start by washing and peeling your apples. Core them and slice them into rings about 1/4-inch thick. You can leave the skin on if you prefer, as it adds texture.
- Make the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. In another bowl, whisk together 1 egg and 1/2 cup of milk. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. The batter should be thick but smooth.
- Heat the Oil: In a deep pan or skillet, heat about 1 inch of oil over medium heat. You can use vegetable oil, canola oil, or any high-smoke point oil. To test if the oil is ready, drop a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle and rise to the surface.
- Coat the Apple Rings: Dip each apple ring into the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off before placing it in the hot oil.
- Fry the Rings: Carefully place the coated apple rings in the hot oil, frying them in batches. Cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
- Drain and Serve: Once fried, use a slotted spoon to remove the rings and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or additional cinnamon sugar if desired.
