The holidays were set to be such a crazy, exciting time for me. I was going to set to work on a huge schedule full of baking, decorating and tradition-making.
Then the flu hit.
Oh... my... word....
I spent the last week of my life eating food that... let's just say, was not blog-worthy. Crackers. Toast. Ginger ale. Typical sick food.
Now that I'm feeling better, I'm trying to get back into the swing of things.
And, I'm starting with these fried apples. Soft apples coated in a crispy coating and dipped in a sweet, cinnamon sugar icing. I used my funnel cake recipe for the coating for something fluffy and crispy.
Absolutely delicious. Not to mention, totally easy and tasty breakfast for any holiday morning.
The only problem will be stopping myself from gorging after a week of clear liquids.
Fried Apple Rings
4 apples
1 egg
2/3 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
Icing:
1 1/2 cups Confectioner's sugar
1/2 stick butter
1 tbsp milk
1 tbsp cinnamon
Oil for frying
Heat a pan of oil to 350F.
Slice the apples into any shape you desire. Combine the rest of the ingredients with a whisk until smooth. Dip the apples into the funnel cake mixture and drop into the hot oil.
Cook until the coat is golden brown and crispy.
Place on a paper-towel lined cookie sheet to drain excess oil.
Mix all of the icing ingredients together in a bowl. Add more or less milk in teaspoon increments to your desired thickness. Drizzle over apples or use as a dipping sauce.
