Notes

These fritters are best enjoyed fresh out of the pan. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one day. Reheat in a 300°F oven for 5-10 minutes for added crispness. Feel free to substitute with your favorite apple variety for different flavors, or use non-dairy milk for a vegan version. Enjoy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of warm honey for an added treat!
