Ingredients
- 2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cup diced apples
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
1. Peel, core, and dice the apples into small, evenly-sized pieces.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently just until combined (a few lumps are okay). Fold in the diced apples.
5. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F for about 5 minutes.
6. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the preheated air fryer basket, leaving space between each fritter.
7. Cook the fritters for 10-12 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
8. Remove the Air Fryer Apple Fritters from the basket, let them cool slightly, then dust them with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
To ensure your Air Fryer Apple Fritters turn out perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, be sure not to overmix the batter. Adjust cooking times based on your air fryer model and remove excess moisture from the apples to prevent sogginess.
