- 2 big apples, peeled, with the core removed, and cut into small pieces.

- 1 and 1/2 cups of regular flour

- 1/4 cup of white sugar

- 1/4 cup of brown sugar

- 2 teaspoons of baking powder

- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon

- 1/2 teaspoon of salt

- Two-thirds cup of milk

- 2 eggs, beaten gently

- 2 tablespoons of melted butter without salt

- 1 teaspoon of vanilla flavor

- Powdered sugar to sprinkle on top (if desired)

Instructions

1. Heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) and lightly grease a baking sheet.

In a big bowl, mix flour, white sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

In another bowl, mix together milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

4. Carefully mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients until just combined. Avoid mixing too much; it's fine if there are a few lumps.

Mix the chopped apples into the batter until they are spread evenly.

Put a small amount of batter, about 1/4 cup or less for smaller fritters, onto a baking sheet, leaving enough space between each fritter.

7. Cook in the oven that has been preheated for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and the center is firm.

Allow the fritters to cool in the pan for around 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack.

Sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving, if you like.

Different Types and Advice

- If children are choosy eaters, consider using their preferred type of apple to make the fritters more attractive.

- You can add some nuts for a crunchy texture or use almond or oat milk instead of regular milk for a dairy-free choice.

- If you want to make it more flavorful, you can add a little bit of nutmeg or allspice to the mixture. It will make every bite feel warm and delightful.

- These fried pastries freeze really well, so feel free to make a larger amount. After they have cooled down, put them in a bag that can be kept in the freezer. You can eat them within 3 months. Just warm them up in the oven when you want to enjoy them.

- For a delicious treat, you can top the fritters with a mixture of powdered sugar and milk once they have cooled down a bit.
