Apple cinnamon fritters

Apple cinnamon fritters are a delightful treat that combines the sweet and warm flavors of apples and cinnamon. These fritters are light and crispy, thanks to the sparkling water, and are perfect for a cozy breakfast or a satisfying dessert.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Apples: Peel, core, and chop the apples into small bite-sized pieces.
- Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, baking soda, sugar, and cinnamon.
2. Mix the Batter:
- Slowly pour the sparkling water into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
3. Add Apples:
- Gently fold the chopped apples into the batter until they are well-coated.
4. Heat Oil:
- In a deep pan or fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). If you do not have a thermometer, test the oil with a small drop of batter; it should sizzle and rise to the surface immediately but not brown too quickly.
5. Fry the Fritters:
- Carefully drop heaping spoonfuls of the apple batter into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary.
- Cook the fritters for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
6. Drain and Serve:
- Remove the fritters from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- Optionally, dust the fritters with extra cinnamon sugar for added sweetness before serving.

Tips:

- Make sure to use self-raising flour to achieve the right texture and fluffiness in the fritters.

- Chill the sparkling water before using it to ensure the batter remains light and airy.

- Use a firm variety of apples that hold their shape well when cooked, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.

- Cut the apples into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.

- Sprinkle some extra cinnamon sugar on top of the fritters after frying for extra flavor.

With just a few ingredients and some simple steps, you can create delicious apple cinnamon fritters that are sure to impress. Enjoy them fresh and warm, dusted with a little extra cinnamon sugar, for a truly delightful experience.
