Delicious Apple Fritters with a Cinnamon Twist

Join the Bon Appétit Bake Club, where each month brings a delightful recipe and baking insights from seasoned Test Kitchen editors Jesse Szewczyk and Shilpa Uskokovic. This month, they’re focusing on a scrumptious treat perfect for fall: apple fritters.

These fritters aim to replicate the beloved experience of apple picking and enjoying warm cider doughnuts. With a sweet apple dough and a hint of spice, they promise to deliver that cozy autumn taste without the wait for yeast to rise.

The secret to these fritters lies in cooking the apples in butter and sugar, creating tender pieces that infuse the batter with rich flavors reminiscent of apple pie. The recipe combines the best elements of cake doughnuts and state-fair fritters, resulting in a soft, fruit-filled dessert.

To make these indulgent treats, cook three large Honeycrisp or Fuji apples with brown sugar and spices, then mix with ricotta and flour. Fry until golden brown and top with a luscious cinnamon glaze for an irresistible finish. Whether enjoyed fresh or saved for later, these fritters are a perfect celebration of the fall season.
