Sweet Apple Fritters

"I grew up eating these apple fritters. They are shaped like a pancake and sprinkled in cinnamon-sugar. We always had this with dinner as a side dish. They are also easy to make for a crowd since you can fry them up in advance and then pop them into the oven just before dinner."

  1. good and easy
     
  2. Oh Karen, these were wonderful! I used to have them all the time while my sister and I were growing up. I used Splenda Sugar Substitute and we sprinkled them with confectioner's sugar, Thanks for the memories, Diane :)
     
  3. These were fun and different. I made a half recipe on a night my DH and DS were not home, for just DD and myself. She just loves anything apple, so of course she just loved these. I did put a lot more oil in my pan than suggested...basically made sure that I had about 1/4 inch of hot oil in the pan. I only baked them in the oven for 20 minutes, and they seemed quite soft and done.
     
  4. I didn't want to rate, as I had trouble with this, and it may be just me. When I flipped them over to brown on the second side, the coating would slide right off! I used Granny Smith apples and probably should have used Mac's or something like that, as the G.S. were a bit tart for this. I probably wouldn't do again, just bcz of the browning and my ineptability (but I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem for others.) Made for 123 Tag.
     
  5. I made these for Sunday breakfast using Splenda and 1% milk to make them a bit healthier. Great breakfast treat.
