vegan apple fritters

Vegan apple fritters - light and crunchy outside and packed full of spiced apple! Enrobed in a cinnamon glaze with a slight hint of cardamom - they&#x27;re my go-to vegan apple fritter!

Vegan Apple Fritters

tbsp ground flax seeds ((chia

water

baking apples ((large! Peeled, cored and cubed))

lemon juice

butter

150 g plant milk ((I used oat))

sugar

195 g plain white flour

tsp baking powder

cinnamon

nutmeg

cardamom

tsp fine sea salt

Vegetable oil

icing sugar

tsp ground cinnamon

tbsp plant milk

Combine the ground flax seed and the water. Whisk together in a small bowl and set aside to thicken.

In a medium bowl, toss the peeled, cored and cubed apples in the lemon juice to stop them browning. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, mix together the melted vegan butter, plant milk and thickened flax egg.

In a separate medium bowl mix together the sugar, flour, baking powder, spices and salt.

Add the better, milk, flax mixture to the dry ingredients and stir well to combine to form a thick batter. Using a slotted spoon, add the apples to the batter, leaving behind any extra lemon juice in the bowl. Mix the apples into the batter well and place in the fridge.

In a high-sided medium saucepan, add a few inches of oil and bring to around 175c. (I use a probe or candy thermometer to make sure the temperature is right).

Once hot, add a heaped dessert-spoon of the batter to the oil. Allow it to fry for around 30 seconds before carefully flipping it over and frying until golden brown all over. Use a slotted spoon or a spider to remove the fried fritter from the oil. Place on a wire cooling rack to drain while you cook the remaining batter.

Once all the batter is cooked, allow the fritters to cool fully for around 15 minutes.

To Make the Apple Fritters

In a medium bowl, whisk together all the glaze ingredients.

Once the fritters are cooled, drizzle a good dessert-spoon of the glaze over each fritter. Leave to set for a few minutes before serving.

To Make the Glaze

These crispy gluten-free apple fritters have a soft and chewy interior and are bursting with sweet maple and cinnamon-spiced apple chunks! A complementary maple glaze is the finishing touch on these easy homemade apple fritters.&nbsp;

Gluten Free Apple Fritters Recipe (Vegan, AIP/Paleo)

cassava flour

tapioca starch

tsp baking soda

tsp sea salt

maple sugar

maple syrup

carbonated water

TBSP apple cider vinegar

apple

avocado oil (for frying)

coconut butter

TBSP coconut milk

sea salt

tsp pure vanilla extract

To a large bowl, add cassava flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, sea salt, cinnamon, and maple sugar, and stir to combine.&nbsp;

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add maple syrup, carbonated water, and apple cider vinegar. Stir until combined into a smooth batter.&nbsp;

Gently fold apples into the batter.&nbsp;

In a pot or deep pan, add avocado oil and heat over medium to medium-high heat for frying.*

Divide the dough into 7 or 8 even sized pieces and slightly flatten the pieces.**

Gently lower each piece of dough into the hot oil so it is fully submerged and deep fry for about 2-2.5 minutes or until golden brown.***&nbsp;

Use a slotted spoon to remove the fritter from the oil and place on a cooling rack with parchment paper-lined baking sheet or paper towel-lined plate underneath to catch drained oil. Let cool slightly and continue frying the remaining dough fritters.&nbsp;

Serve apple fritters warm, with optional maple glaze.&nbsp;

In a small saucepan, combine coconut butter, coconut milk, maple syrup, sea salt and vanilla extract over low heat. If the glaze is too thick add more coconut milk as necessary.

These were really great! Making them small helps ensure a crispy result. We skipped the glaze because they were so good as is. Even the kids enjoyed them and came back for more.

My dough was pretty runny so I added more Cassava flour. I used my electric frying pan so the oil was not as deep but it worked great and I was able to do four at a time with room to spare. Love these!! Don't even need the glaze, they are so good. Any chance you could come up with an Apple Cider Donut recipe?!
