Sunday Morning Idea.

Matt has to work most weekends. So while he's at work I like to be productive with my time off.  Mostly, I like to cook and try  new recipes.  This morning I was craving apple fritters.  I love the ones from Starbucks but have no idea how they make them.  So I did a little research, found a recipe and realized I had everything I needed already in the house!

Not only was this exciting because I could make them right away but also because I didn't have to change out of my pjs :)

I found this recipe:

6 large cooking apples, peeled and chopped
1 c flour
1/4 c sugar
2 t baking powder
1/4 t salt
1 large egg beaten
1/2 c milk
oil for deep frying (I used vegetable- its what I had in the house)
powdered sugar or cinnamon/sugar
Mix all dry ingredients.
Beat egg and add milk.
Add egg mixture to dry mixture!
Add apples and mix until fully coated in mixture.

Drop teaspoon size balls into 1/2 inch of hot cooking oil (I heated mine on high in a deep pot)

Make sure to flip them once! Cook for approx. 3 minutes total. Remove from oil and immediately top with sugar- I used cinnamon-sugar.

*NOTE* You will want to eat more than one.
