Notes

These fritters are best served warm. You can place them on a plate and drizzle extra glaze over the top for presentation. They pair perfectly with a hot cup of coffee or tea, making for a delightful snack or breakfast option. Make sure not to overmix the batter; it should be just combined. Use fresh apples for the best flavor, but you can substitute with other types of apples if needed. Experiment with adding nuts or raisins for a twist on the classic fritter.
