Tips
- The oil should be 170-175°C: if it's cooler, the fritters turn oily; if hotter, they burn outside and stay raw inside.
- Don't slice the apples too thin; they should be 1 cm thick.
- Don't overmix the batter, so the fritters stay airy.
Frequently asked questions
Can I bake them?
Without frying, you can bake the batter in muffin tins at 180°C (160°C fan) for 20 minutes, but it won't be crisp.
Which apples should I choose?
Tart, firm apples, such as Granny Smith or Jonathan.
