Ingredients
Scale
For apple donuts:
- 3 apples
- 100g self-raising flour
- 1 egg
- 70 ml milk
- oil for frying, vegetable, sunflower or light olive oil
For the cinnamon sugar:
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 3 tbsp caster sugar
Instructions
- Using an apple corer, remove the core from your apples. Cut into slices so you have apple rounds with a hole in the centre.
- Mix the batter in a bowl - flour, egg and milk.
- In a deep sided pan, add about an inch of oil. Once hot, dip the apple slices in the batter until well coated and then fry in the hot oil until golden on each side.
- Mix the cinnamon sugar together then dredge each hot donut in it. Enjoy whilst piping hot!
Notes
Also delicious drizzled with a caramel sauce!
I prefer doing these this way where you deep fry them but you can also melt together 2 tbsp butter and a tablespoon of oil and fry them like that too.
