Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1 large egg (room temperature)
- 2 cups diced apples (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- Vegetable oil for frying (approximately 2 inches in pot)
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients on your countertop.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and sugar until combined.
- In another bowl, mix milk and egg until well blended.
- Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients while gently folding in diced apples.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C). Test by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle.
- Carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides (around 3 minutes). Drain on paper towels.
