Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3-4 large apples
  • oil ((for frying))
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 TBS white sugar
  • 1 cup buttermilk ((or 1 cup milk mixed with 1 tsp white vinegar))
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Instruction

  • Preheat a large shallow pot full of about 2 inches of oil over medium heat. You want it to be about 375 Fahrenheit.
  • In a medium sized bowl mix together theflour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and sugar.
  • In a small bowl stir together the buttermilk and egg.
  • Dump your buttermilk and egg into the flour mixture and stir together.
  • In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and sugar for the topping then dump onto a plate. Set it aside.
  • Slice your apples into thin round slices, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Cut out and discard the core of the apples.
  • Cut each apple slice into 2 rings, one smaller from the middle and one bigger from the edge. (A round cookie cutter or biscuit cutter works great.)
  • Dip your apple slices into your batter and allow excess batter to drip off.
  • Put a few slices at a time into the preheated oil.
  • Allow to cook for about 2 minutes total, flipping over half way through when the bottom is a golden brown color. Cook until both sides are nicely golden brown.
  • Remove from oil and place on some paper towels to drip excess oil off.
  • Dip apple slices into cinnamon sugar mixture, and coat on both sides.
  • Serve hot.
