Here’s a simple, tasty recipe for baked apple fritters (so you get the flavor without deep frying).
🍎 Baked Apple Fritters

For the batter:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour

Optional glaze:

Instructions
- Prep apples:
Mix diced apples with lemon juice, sugar, and cinnamon. Set aside. - Make batter:
In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, and melted butter.
Combine wet and dry ingredients until just mixed. - Add apples:
Fold apple mixture into the batter. - Bake:

Result
Soft inside, lightly crisp outside, and full of cinnamon-apple flavor—like classic fritters but baked instead of fried.
If you want, I can also give you a healthier version (less sugar, higher protein) or a crunchier fried-style recipe.
