I could eat them almost every day! From pantry to plate in just 3 minutes of prep

These simple apple fritters combine crispy golden batter with tender, sweet apple slices. Made with everyday ingredients like yogurt, flour, and fresh apples, they're perfect for breakfast, dessert, or an anytime snack!

✅ Ingredients
For the Batter:
300 g all-purpose flour (or use puff pastry sheets as alternative)
1 pinch of salt
300 ml plain yogurt
2 large eggs
For the Apples:
2 large apples (choose soft, sweet varieties like Gala, Fuji, or Golden Delicious)
Juice of ½ lemon (to prevent browning)
For Frying & Serving:
Vegetable oil or butter for frying
Powdered sugar for dusting
👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Batter
In a large bowl, combine flour and salt
Add yogurt and eggs
Mix well until you get a thick, smooth batter (consistency should be like pancake batter)
Set aside while you prepare the apples
2️⃣ Prepare the Apples
Peel the apples
Remove the core using an apple corer or knife
Slice the apples into rings about 1 cm (½ inch) thick
Drizzle with lemon juice to prevent browning and add a hint of freshness
💡 Tip: Keep apple slices uniform in thickness for even cooking

3️⃣ Fry the Apple Fritters
Heat oil or butter in a large frying pan over medium heat (oil should be about ½ cm deep)
Dip each apple slice into the batter, coating both sides completely
Carefully place coated apple slices into the hot oil
Fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown
Turn frequently to ensure even browning
⚠️ Don't overcrowd the pan — fry in batches for best results

4️⃣ Drain & Serve
Remove golden fritters from the pan
Place on paper towels to absorb excess oil
While still hot, generously dust with powdered sugar
Serve immediately for best texture

🔥 Pro Tips for Perfect Results
✔ Use slightly sweet, soft apples — they cook faster and taste better
✔ Don't skip the lemon juice — it prevents browning and adds brightness
✔ Test oil temperature — drop a bit of batter in; it should sizzle immediately
✔ Serve immediately — fritters are best when fresh and warm
✔ Keep warm in oven — if making multiple batches, keep finished fritters warm at 100°C/200°F
