Expert Tips

  • Cut the apples small. Large chunks can make fritters difficult to cook evenly.
  • Don’t overmix the batter. Stir just until everything comes together. Overmixing can make the fritters dense.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan. Frying too many fritters at once can lower the oil temperature.

Recipe FAQs

How to store fritters?

Fritters are best the day they are made. Store apple fritters in an airtight container on the counter for 2-3 days or in the freezer for up to a month. They usually disappear so fast. Kids love them!

Can I freeze fritters?

I would not recommend freezing fritters. Apples will be soggy after defrosting.
