When I was a kid, I could always tell when fall had arrived because Grandma Eldora’s home would smell like freshly cooked apple fritters. During harvest season, these delicious snacks were always on hand as a way to honor the abundance of apples from our orchard. Baking them instead of frying them gives them a taste of classic Midwestern cuisine, great for nostalgic foodies who are watching their calorie intake. The soft crumb and delicious apple pieces in these fritters will transport you to a warm and welcoming family reunion.
Whether you’re serving them for a casual lunch or brunch, baked apple fritters are the perfect complement to a side of creamy scrambled eggs or light, fresh coleslaw. The tastes are amplified and the warmth is increased with a mug of hot cider or coffee. Dessert perfection is a scoop of warm fritter topped with melted vanilla ice cream.
