Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (or Sugar-Free Hazelnut Creamer)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 4 large apples, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rings with cores removed
- Canola oil for frying
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 to 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and whisk until a smooth batter forms. Set aside.
- Slice apples into 1/4-inch thick rings and remove the cores using a small round cutter.
- Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat to 375°F (190°C).
- Dip each apple ring in the batter, allowing the excess to drip off, then carefully place in the hot oil.
- Fry the rings in batches for 1–2 minutes per side or until golden brown. Flip once during frying.
- Remove fried apple rings and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- In a shallow bowl or plate, combine the sugar and cinnamon.
- While still warm, sprinkle or roll apple rings in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Serve with caramel sauce or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
- To make it more kid-friendly, use a fun cookie cutter shape to cut out the centers.
- Eat while hot for best texture!
