Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by peeling, coring, and dicing 2-3 apples. Toss the diced apples with a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar. Set aside.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Then mix in sugar.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix in milk and vanilla until smooth. Pour this into the dry ingredients.
  4. Gently fold wet ingredients into dry until just combined, then fold in the apple mixture.
  5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop dollops of batter.
  6. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown. Check with a toothpick to see if they are done.
  7. Prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and water until smooth.
  8. Drizzle glaze over fritters after cooling for about 5 minutes. Serve warm.
