  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 1/2 cups finely diced Honeycrisp or Gala apples (about 2 medium)
  • Apple Cider Glaze:
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup + 2 tbsp apple cider or juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F and grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk melted butter and sugar until combined. Then whisk in egg, vanilla, and applesauce until smooth.
  4. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Gently fold in diced apples.
  5. Scoop 1 tbsp portions of batter onto prepared baking sheet, a few inches apart.
  6. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and turn broiler to high.
  7. Whisk powdered sugar and apple cider/juice to make glaze.
  8. Brush some glaze over warm fritter bites and broil 2–4 minutes until caramelized, rotating pan frequently.
  9. Remove from oven and brush remaining glaze evenly over fritters.
  10. Let sit 15 minutes to allow glaze to set before serving.

Notes

  • Use Honeycrisp or Gala apples for best flavor and texture.
  • Adjust broiling time carefully to avoid burning the glaze.
