How to Make Crispy Apple Fritters with Cinnamon and Vanilla – A Simple and Irresistibly Sweet Recipe Do you want something sweet, crispy, and warm? The ideal sweet treat are these apple fritters made at home. With a golden crust, tender apple chunks, and the comforting flavors of cinnamon and vanilla, this recipe is both simple and incredibly satisfying. To start, peel and dice 2 medium apples—Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best for their balance of sweet and tart. Combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl. Combine 1 egg, 1/3 cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon melted butter in another bowl. After gently folding in the apples, combine the wet and dry ingredients until just combined. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat—around 350°F (175°C). Drop spoonfuls of batter into the oil and cook until crisp and golden on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove fritters with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. For an extra touch, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar, milk, and a hint of vanilla. The best way to enjoy these apple fritters is warm with a cup of coffee or tea. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, they’ll quickly become a family favorite. Sweet, crispy, and bursting with cinnamon-vanilla flavor—what’s not to love?
