Warm Baked Apple Fritters: The Cozy Fall Treat You Can Make in Minutes

• 1 cup powdered sugar

• 2-3 tablespoons milk or cream

• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

• Pinch of cinnamon (optional)

The Method: Mix, Drop, Bake, Glaze

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together:

• Flour

• Sugar

• Baking powder

• Cinnamon

• Salt

• Nutmeg (if using)

Step 3: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together:

• Eggs

• Milk

• Melted butter

• Vanilla extract

Step 4: Combine

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter will be thick—that’s correct.

Gently fold in the chopped apples. Don’t overmix—a few streaks are fine.

Step 5: Drop and Bake
