- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk (whole or any type)
- 1 large egg
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
- 1. Prepare Your Apples: Peel and dice the apples into small, bite-sized pieces.
- 2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- 3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the egg lightly. Add the milk to the egg and mix well. Gradually pour this mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined; do not overmix.
- 4. Fold in Apples: Gently fold the diced apples into the batter until evenly distributed.
