Apple fritters

Ingredients for 4:

2 rennet apples

100 g plain flour

1 sachet of baking powder

one tablespoon of icing sugar

one egg

milk as required

peanut oil for frying

Method:

Sieve the flour, the baking powder and the icing sugar together in a bowl.

Beat the egg lightly with a fork and add it to the dry ingredients. Mix in the milk slowly with a whip until the batter is smooth and creamy.

Peal the apples, cut them into 7-8 millimetre thick slices and remove the core with the aid of a round biscuit mould.

Soak the apple slices in the batter and fry them in plenty of hot oil. When the first side is cooked, turn them around and fry again for 30 seconds.

Place the fritters on absorbent paper and serve them warm with a dusting of icing sugar.
