They taste like the best donut you’ve ever had but instead of being made of yeast and flour, these donuts are made from apples.
Ingredients
Fried Apples
- 4 large apples (sweet)
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 tsp. baking powder
- 2 tbsp. sugar
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/8 tsp. cinnamon
- 1 large beaten egg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
Topping
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 tsp. cinnamon
Steps
- Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Use a wire whisk to combine.
- In a second, small bowl combine the egg and buttermilk. Whisk together until fully combined.
- Mix the topping by whisking together the sugar and cinnamon in a separate bowl.
- Cut apples into ¼-inch thick slices.
- Use a circle biscuit cutter in to make rings out of each slice so they end up resembling donuts.
- Throw away centers and apple cores.
- Heat oil in a large pan to 350 degrees. Generally heating at medium heat will allow you to achieve this temperature.
- Pour the contents of the second bowl (the egg and buttermilk) into the first bowl containing the flour, etc. Whisk together well until it becomes a thick batter.
- Dip apple rings into batter. Do this several times until the apple is fully coated with batter. Tap ring on the side of the bowl to remove any excess batter.
- Place in frying pan and allow them to simmer and fry. Fry only one or two apple rings at a time, turning as the bottom browns.
- Transfer fried rings to a plate lined with 2 or 3 paper towels to pick up any excess oil. Only allow the rings to sit on the paper towel for a few seconds.
- Dredge the apple rings through the cinnamon and sugar topping, turning over and over so the entire apple is covered with cinnamon and sugar.
- Place apple rings on a wire rack to cool. Serve warm if possible.
Tips
- Try this recipe with pear slices.
- Add a little brown sugar, ginger and/or allspice to your topping mixture for extra “zing.”
