I guess fritters are just an ugly looking doughnut. I am thankful for their lack of beauty because they make up for it in taste. Here’s how easy they are to make…you’ll be a doughnut maker in no time.

Ingredients
For fritters:

• 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• ½ tsp. cinnamon
• ½ tsp. salt
• ¼ cup milk
• 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
• 2-3 cups peeled, cored and chopped Granny Smith or Gravenstein apples (firm pie apples!)
• Vegetable oil for deep-frying (approx. 4-5 cups- enough to come halfway up sides of pan or skillet)

For glaze:

• 1¼ cups powdered sugar
• ¼ tsp. vanilla
• 3-4 tsp. warm water (thin enough to make the glaze “paintable”)
