You guys, I have such an amazing fall treat to share with you today – these Apple Fritter Bites are legitimately life-changing.
We’re talking light-as-air, doughnut-like fritters that are loaded with real apple flavor and topped with the most heavenly apple cider glaze.
They’re baked instead of fried too, so you can feel a little bit better about going back for seconds…or thirds!
I first tried these little bites of heaven when my friend Courtney, the genius behind Baker Mama, shared her new cookbook Brilliant Bites with me.
As soon as I read the title of this recipe, I knew I had to make them ASAP.
I mean, could you dream up a more perfect fall snack?! Warm, doughy apple fritters in poppable form with a crisp cider glaze? Yes please!
Let me just say, these deliver on all the apple fritter deliciousness you could ever want.
They’re supremely moist and loaded with tender chunks of fresh apple.
The glaze is tart, sweet, and gives you that signature crackly crust that’s downright irresistible.
And the best part? Since they’re baked, not fried, you can feel good about munching on a few…or the whole batch if you’re like me!
