Chinese Toffee Apple Fritters
These fritters are not only visually appealing but also incredibly tasty. The combination of crispy outer layers and the soft, sweet apple filling will surely satisfy your cravings.
Ingredients
- 2 large apples (preferably Granny Smith or Fuji)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup water (more if needed)
- 1 cup sugar
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Start by preparing the apples. Wash them thoroughly, peel if desired, and core them. Cut each apple into slices or wedges, depending on your preference.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
- Gradually add water to the dry mixture, stirring constantly until you achieve a smooth batter. The consistency should be thick enough to coat the apple slices but not overly runny. If needed, adjust the thickness by adding more water or flour.
- Heat a deep pan or fryer with vegetable oil over medium heat. You’ll need enough oil to submerge the fritters.
- While the oil is heating, prepare your sugar coating by placing the sugar in a shallow dish.
- Once the oil is hot, dip each apple slice into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off. Carefully place the coated apple slices in the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fritters and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- While they’re still warm, roll the fritters in the sugar for a sweet finish. Make sure to coat them evenly for the best flavor.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delectable Chinese toffee apple fritters!
These fritters are a fantastic way to treat yourself and impress your friends and family. Enjoy every bite!
