are so yummy. Really easy to do. Simple ingredients. If I can do it, you can do it. Before I move on, make sure to

below in the description box, you'll find a list of the
ingredients and the amounts. First, let's take a pot and
fill it with oil about an inch, inch and a half deep. I'm using vegetable oil,
but you could use also canola oil, lard,
shortening peanut oil or coconut oil. And we want to heat this to
about three hundred and fifty degrees Fahrenheit began by
taking three apples. I'm using Granny Smith apples,
but any any apple will work. I like a nice tart apple. All right. And then once you peel and pour
the apples and slice them into little chunks, what I'm going
to do is I'm going to add some lemon juice. And this is about
a tablespoon, two tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, which is
about half of a lemon. And I'm just going to
pour that on the apples and just stir them around a little bit. Fantastic. And now in a medium bowl,
I have one cup of all purpose flour and I'm going to add one
half teaspoon of salt, one half teaspoon of ground cinnamon,
about an eighth of a teaspoon of nutmeg, one and one half
teaspoon of baking powder and three tablespoons of
white granulated sugar. And then with a whisk. We will raise that together. All right, now I'm going to add
one large egg, one teaspoon of vanilla extract. Give this a whisk. One half cup of milk, I am
using whole milk, but you could use two percent, one percent
and even almond milk if you want. And now I have one tablespoon
of butter and I'm just going to melt this in the microwave 15
seconds or so and then put that in there as well. We don't want it
to be too hot. So just until it melts. Oh, right. And then we will pour that in,
give it a good mix. Excellent. We'll take the flour mixture
and then I'm going to switch to that spoon and we will
stir this up. Oh, right, and now
let's add in our apples. And we will mix this up. I like mine to have a lot of
apples in it, so depending on how you want it, you might
reduce it to only two apples. This has a lot of apples. All right, there we go, and now
we just take it over to the stovetop and Friday's up. All right. Once the oil
oil comes to temp. I'm going to take a big scoop. Of the batter and
pour it in the oil, kind of just push
it around a little bit. And then we will
take a wider ladle and we'll turn these,
you can also use tongs and we're going to fry them
till they get pretty brown. Now, if you use only
two apples, you'll have more of a batter than you
will the apple. Like I said, I really like to
have more apple than batter, but it's totally up
to you, your preference. And he wanted to get them
fairly dark and crispy. So about like that, OK, and we're going to
put them on a plate lined with paper towel. Yeah, I mean. And then after it dries a
little bit on the paper towel, then put it on a wire rack
to cool, and this will prevent it from getting soggy
and stay nice and crispy. And now let's make
a simple glaze. I'm just going
to take some water, about a half a tablespoon
at first, add some powdered sugar and then just mix
this with a fork and then add
a little bit more. Water is necessary to get the
thickness that you want. And that's about a cup cup and
a half of powdered sugar, a little bit more water. All right. That is really nice and thick, so that is a good
glaze right there. And you may even
just a little bit more winds up being
about two tablespoons. All right, awesome. Now we have our glaze,
we'll just take the apple fritter and dip it in that glaze. Make sure you have
clean hands or use tongs and then put it back on
your way, Iraq and it will drain. You also could just take a
spoon and grab some glaze and pour it all over. The Frita. However you want to do it,
dip it or pour it. Awesome. And there we go. It won't take too long for that
glaze to dry and then you can eat them and now once the
glaze dries, you can also roll these in like a cinnamon sugar
mixture or sprinkle powdered sugar on top if you want to
grab one and take a bite. Mm hmm. I get that awesome. All right, the apple fritters
are done and turned out fantastic. This recipe makes somewhere
between nine and 12 apple fritters depending on
the size. You make them really
easy to do simple ingredients. If I can do it, you can do it. I'm Matt Taylor. This has been another episode
