Delicious Fresh Peach Fritters

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
  • Oil for frying
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and granulated sugar until well combined.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Gently fold in the diced peaches until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  5. In a deep frying pan or pot, heat oil over medium heat. To test if the oil is ready, drop a small dollop of batter into the oil; it should sizzle and rise to the surface.
  6. Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, carefully drop the batter into the hot oil. Fry a few fritters at a time, depending on the size of your pan, making sure to not overcrowd.
  7. Fry each fritter for about 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown, then carefully flip and fry for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
  8. Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  9. Before serving, dust the warm fritters with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.

Enjoy these freshly made Peach Fritters warm, either as they are or with your favorite dipping sauce. They are sure to become a favorite in your household!
