Ingredients
  

2 medium apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled and diced

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup milk

1 large egg

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Oil for frying

Powdered sugar for dusting

Optional: caramel sauce for drizzling

Instructions
 

Prep the Apples: Start by peeling and dicing the apples into small chunks. Set them aside in a bowl.

    Make the Batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract.

      Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

        Fold in Apples: Gently fold in the diced apples to the batter until they are well coated.

          Heat the Oil: In a large pot or deep skillet, heat about 2 inches of oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

            Fry the Bites: Use a tablespoon to drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up. Flip them halfway through for even cooking.

              Drain and Dust: Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove the apple fritter bites from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate. While still warm, dust generously with powdered sugar.

                Serve: Enjoy them warm, drizzled with caramel sauce if desired.
