Soft, fluffy, and packed with tender apples, these Baked Cinnamon Apple Fritters<\/strong> are an easy homemade treat with warm cinnamon flavor and a sweet vanilla glaze. They\u2019re baked instead of deep-fried, making them perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a cozy fall dessert.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n

For the Apple Fritters<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and finely diced<\/li>\n
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour<\/li>\n
  • 1\/3 cup granulated sugar<\/li>\n
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder<\/li>\n
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon<\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg<\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n
  • 2 large eggs<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup whole milk<\/li>\n
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    For the Vanilla Glaze<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • 1 cup powdered sugar<\/li>\n
    • 2 tablespoons milk<\/li>\n
    • 1\/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Instructions<\/h2>\n
        \n
      1. Preheat the oven<\/strong> to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it.<\/li>\n
      2. Prepare the apples:<\/strong> Peel, core, and finely dice the apples. Set them aside.<\/li>\n
      3. Mix the dry ingredients:<\/strong> In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.<\/li>\n
      4. Mix the wet ingredients:<\/strong> In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.<\/li>\n
      5. Combine:<\/strong> Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir just until combined. Do not overmix.<\/li>\n
      6. Add the apples:<\/strong> Fold the diced apples into the batter until evenly distributed. The batter should be thick and scoopable.<\/li>\n
      7. Form the fritters:<\/strong> Drop heaping spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. Gently shape them into small, thick rounds.<\/li>\n
      8. Bake:<\/strong> Bake for 15\u201320 minutes, or until the fritters are puffed and lightly golden around the edges. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.<\/li>\n
      9. Make the glaze:<\/strong> While the fritters cool, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Add a few drops of milk if needed to reach your desired consistency.<\/li>\n
      10. Glaze:<\/strong> Let the fritters cool for about 5\u201310 minutes, then drizzle generously with the vanilla glaze.<\/li>\n
      11. Serve:<\/strong> Enjoy them warm or at room temperature with a cup of coffee, tea, or cold milk.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Tips for the Best Apple Fritters<\/h2>\n
          \n
        • Use apples that hold their shape well when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.<\/li>\n
        • Dice the apples fairly small so they soften quickly while baking.<\/li>\n
        • Don\u2019t overmix the batter, or the fritters may become dense instead of fluffy.<\/li>\n
        • For extra cinnamon flavor, sprinkle a little cinnamon over the glaze before serving.<\/li>\n
        • These fritters are best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
