# Instructions:
01 -
Fire up your oven to 375°F and grab a baking sheet. Line it with parchment paper or give it a light coating of cooking spray.
02 -
In a big bowl, throw together your flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Give it a good whisk to blend everything nicely.
03 -
Grab another bowl and whisk up your eggs, milk, vanilla, and that melted butter until everything's playing nice together.
04 -
Pour your wet mix into the dry ingredients. Stir just enough to get everything combined - don't go crazy! Then gently fold in those diced apples.
05 -
Drop generous spoonfuls of your batter onto the baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of breathing room between each one. Pop them in the oven for 14-16 minutes until they're golden brown.
06 -
While your fritters are cooling off a bit, mix up the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until you've got a smooth glaze.
07 -
Drizzle that sweet glaze all over your warm fritters. Let it set for a few minutes before diving in.
# Notes:
01 -
These taste best warm - pop them in the microwave for 10 seconds to refresh if needed
02 -
Try adding some chopped nuts to the batter for extra crunch
03 -
Make the glaze thicker or thinner by adjusting the milk
