Nice! I make mine with honey crisp apples as well, then sprinkle some powdered sugar on top. Reminds me of childhood. Kid and wife love them.

I just plop the batter in and get all kinds of random sizes, but they are still yummy- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
- 1/2-3/4 cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon real maple syrup
- 3-4 Honeycrisp apples, peeled (if desired) and chopped
VANILLA COFFEE GLAZE
- 1 1/3 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1-2 tablespoons real maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2-3 teaspoons instant coffee
- flaky sea salt
INSTRUCTIONS
- 1. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Add the eggs, butter, 1/2 cup milk, and maple, and mix until just combined, being careful not to over mix the batter. If the the batter feels thick, add 1/4 cup milk to thin. Fold in the apples.
2. Heat 1-2 inches of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drop tablespoons size balls of batter into the oil for 4-5 minutes or until golden and crisp on all sides. Remove and drain on a wire rack with paper towels underneath.
3. To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, maple, vanilla, and coffee powder. Add a pinch of flaky seas salt. Drizzle the glaze over the warm fritters. Eat warm. And enjoy.
For the apples, honey crisp's can be very large so use your best judgment on amount

I love them. We don’t make them because my parents hate them claiming they are too sweet 
So I understand that, I don't like them to sweet either. If you notice in my recipe all the sweetness comes from maple syrup. I eat mine without the glaze, but even with the glaze they are not to sweet. Of course the apples ad some sweet as well but I try not to rely on plain sugar in any of the treats I make.I love them. We don’t make them because my parents hate them claiming they are too sweet
My recipe doesn't call for any sugar either, other than a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top - use as little as you like or none at all.

All the recipes I’ve found online take sugar lol. And the ones made by the local bakery sold at the gas station are loaded with sugar too I love them
Share it if you don't mind. I love to try different recipes, I usually only make this stuff around holidays
Fritters are the best when freshly made, right from the pan to your mouth is best
Give the recipe above a try, it's super easy.

If I can lolFritters are the best when freshly made, right from the pan to your mouth is best
. I’ll have to figure out a way to convince my parents to buy all that stuff and let me cook
Recipes are just guides. You can always cut the amount of sugar. If you need the volume or texture sugar provides you may want to try replacing some of the sugar with apple sauce.
I don't think that's how it's supposed to work.If I can lol

Good idea. I don’t know if Apple sauce would go good in them or not though.
