Homemade apple fritters are the ultimate cozy breakfast or easy dessert made with fresh apples, in the air fryer instead of deep fried for a healthier swap, and dipped in a simple glaze!
Servings: 12-14
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups All Purpose Flour
- 2 tsp. Baking Powder
- ½ tsp. Fine Sea Salt
- 1 ½ tsp. Ground Cinnamon
- ½ tsp. Ground Allspice
- ¼ cup Granulated Cane Sugar
- ⅓ cup Whole Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 2 T Melted Butter
- 3 T Applesauce
- 2 cups Honeycrisp Apples, finely diced
- 1 T Apple Cider Vinegar
- 2 T Olive Oil
- 2 cups Powdered Sugar
- ¼ cup Milk, for the glaze
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, allspice and sugar.
- Create a well in the center to add the milk, eggs, vanilla, butter and applesauce. Mix the wet ingredients, then fold into the dry ingredients.
- Add the diced apples and apple cider vinegar. Fold all ingredients together with a spatula just until combined.
- Line your air fryer with parchment paper. Use a large cookie scoop to drop large dollops of batter onto the paper, working in small batches of 3-4 fritters at a time.
- Drizzle lightly with olive oil.
- Bake at 425F for 7-8 minutes, until deeply golden, then flip to bake an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side.
- To make the glaze, whisk the powdered sugar and milk together until smooth. Dip the tops of the cooked apple fritters in the glaze, then let rest on a wire rack until the glaze is set, about 1-2 minutes. Enjoy warm!
