Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 medium Granny Smith apple, peeled and finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and granulated sugar until well combined and evenly distributed.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the large egg with the whole milk until smooth. Gradually pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined without overmixing.
  4. Add Apples: Gently fold the finely chopped Granny Smith apple pieces into the batter, making sure they are evenly incorporated throughout.
  5. Portion Batter: Using a spoon, drop small spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly to allow room for spreading while baking.
  6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fritter bites turn golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar or accompanied by your favorite dipping sauce for added sweetness.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the dry ingredients along with cinnamon.
  • Use Granny Smith apples for a tart contrast, but you can substitute with your preferred apple variety.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the fritter bites light and tender.
  • These bites are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, warm briefly in the oven or microwave to retain texture and flavor.
