I use a same volume of ‘Flour’ and ‘Egg & Water mixture’ to make Tempura batter. For Fritter batter, I do the same. It’s easy to remember. Today I used Milk instead of Water and added a little Sugar. You can use the same batter for other fruit fritters, however, you need to coat the fruit with Flour if they are wet, such as Pineapple.

Steps

15 minutes

1

Combine all the Batter ingredients in a bowl. If the batter is too thick, add 1-2 teaspoons extra Milk. *Note: Batter can be made without Egg. You can use Milk only.
2

Peel Apples and slice into 1cm thick rings. Remove cores using a small knife OR apple corer if you have it. Lightly coat the Apple rings with Flour, but it is optional.
3

Heat deep enough Oil, 2cm should be enough, in a frying pan over medium low heat.
4

Dip an Apple ring in the batter, place in the Oil, repeat with 3 to 4 more rings, and fry them until the bottom side is nicely browned. Turn them over and fry the other side until nicely browned. Transfer to a large plate lined with paper towel. Repeat until all Apple rings are fried.
5

Combine 1 tablespoon Caster Sugar and Ground Cinnamon, and sprinkle it over the Apple Fritters. Enjoy as they are, OR with Cream, Ice Cream, etc.
