Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Granulated erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 Medium apple, peeled and diced
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, for frying
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the unsweetened almond milk and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
Fold the diced apple into the batter until evenly distributed.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the skillet, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon.
Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining batter, ensuring the oil returns to temperature between batches.
Serve warm, optionally dusted with additional erythritol or a dollop of whipped cream.
