1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, combine milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined—don’t overmix, darlings; a few lumps are okay.
5. Fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Drop 1/4 cup (or less for smaller) of batter onto baking sheet and make sure there’s space for your fritters.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they’re golden brown and center is set.
8. Let the fritters cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
9. Dust with powdered sugar before serving if desired.
Variations & Tips
– For those little ones who might be a bit picky, try using their favorite apple variety to make the fritters more appealing.
– You can certainly add a handful of nuts for extra crunch or substitute the milk for almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
– If you’re in the mood for a bit more spice, add a pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the batter. It’ll give a lovely warmth to each bite.
– These fritters freeze beautifully, so go ahead and double the batch. Once completely cooled, place them in a freezer-friendly bag and enjoy them anytime within 3 months; just reheat in the oven until warm and toasty.
– For a decadent treat, try glazing the fritters with a simple mix of powdered sugar and milk after they’ve cooled slightly.
