Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbsp milk
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a deep skillet about 2 inches deep to 375°F. Keep the temperature steady so the fritters cook evenly.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Add milk, eggs, canola oil, and vanilla, stirring until smooth. Fold in diced apples until fully coated.
  • Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil and fry in batches for about 5 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp.
