Christina's Notes
- Air Fryer: Use parchment paper to line your air fryer basket. Cook at 400 degrees for 5 minutes on each side.
- Sugar: No need to glaze, you can dust with confectioners sugar and cinnamon and they are great!
- Gluten-Free: you can make gluten-free apple fritters by using gluten-free flour.
- Avoid Soggy Fritters: Make sure that the temperature remains constant so that the fritters do not absorb to much oil and get soggy.
- Variation tip: Feel free to serve with cinnamon or vanilla ice cream.
- Apple Juice: You can substitute apple juice for the milk!
- Dipped: Dip the fritters in the glaze to get a better coating of the simple glaze on the fried apple fritters.
