Here’s a simple Baked Apple Fritters recipe—no deep frying, but still soft, sweet, and lightly crisp on the edges.
🍎 Baked Apple Fritters
🧂 Ingredients
- 2 medium apples (peeled, diced small)
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour

- 2 tbsp melted butter or oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

🔥 Instructions
1. Prepare apples
Dice apples into small chunks. You can toss them with a little cinnamon if you like extra flavor.
2. Make batter
In a bowl:
- Mix flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar
In another bowl: - Whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla
Combine wet + dry ingredients
Fold in chopped apples
3. Bake
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F)
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper
- Spoon batter into small fritter mounds (don’t flatten too much)

4. Add glaze (optional)

Drizzle over warm fritters
🍽️ Tips
- Small apple pieces = better texture
- Don’t overmix batter (keeps fritters soft)
- Best eaten warm for that bakery-style feel
