Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.25 cups Blueberries
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.
Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, carefully drop small dollops of batter (about 2 tablespoons) into the hot oil. Avoid overcrowding the pot to maintain the oil temperature.
Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
To prepare the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Once the fritters are slightly cooled, drizzle or dip them in the glaze. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the fritters warm and enjoy!
