Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Apples (e.g., Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 1 unit Large egg
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Peel the apples and remove the cores using an apple corer or a paring knife.
Slice the apples into rings approximately 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and milk together. Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot to 350°F (175°C). Use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the oil temperature.
Dip each apple ring into the batter, ensuring it is evenly coated. Allow excess batter to drip off.
Carefully place the coated apple rings into the hot oil, frying them in small batches to avoid overcrowding.
Fry the apple rings for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried rings to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Repeat the process with the remaining apple rings and batter.
Optional: Dust the fried apple rings with powdered sugar and a light sprinkle of cinnamon for extra sweetness.
Serve warm and enjoy!
