Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 12 Fritters

Equipment

  • 1 Cast Iron Skillet

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/2 cup sourdough discard
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 medium sized apples
  • 2-3 cup coconut oil for fyring (or vegetable oil)

Dry Ingredients

Glaze

Instructions
 

  • 1. Peel all of your apples and dice them into smaller pieces. We like to use an apple peeler that makes this part go much faster.
  • 2. In a large bowl combine all of your wet ingredients (except the oil) and wisk them together until they are fully combined.
  • 3. In a seperate bowl combine all of your dry ingredients and mix them all together.
  • 4. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix just until all of the flour has been mixed in and there are no more bits left.
  • 5. Gently fold the apple apples into the batter
  • 6. Fill the cast iron skillet with your oil up to about 2 inches and turn the stove onto medium heat until the oil is hat enough to cook. You can test this buy placing a small amount of batter into the oil and it should start sizzling and float on the top if the oil is ready.
  • 7. Place a small amount of batter into the oil and continue to do this until you are able to fit around 7 fritters into the skillet. We found that using a cookie scooper worked best for this part, but you can always use a small spoon if you do not have one.
  • 8. After about 2 minutes on one side, you should be able to notice the bottom of the batter starting to turn a golden brown. Once this occurs, flip the fritters over and cook for approximately another 2 minutes until the other side has also turned golden brown.
  • 9. Remove the fritters from the skillet and place somewhere for them to begin cooling off.

Glaze

  • For glaze, simply combine the powdered sugar and the milk and wisk together until it forms a good consistency. You may have to add either more powdered sugar or milk depending on the consistentcy that you like.
  • Once the fritters have cooled slightly, but are still a little warm, drizzle the glaze over top to complete the process.
