APPLE FRITTERS WITH SPICED SYRUPSAVE

Steps:

• Heat 2 to 3 inches of oil to 365°F in deep fryer or deep saucepan.
• Combine egg and milk in a large bowl. Stir in apple and 1 tablespoon oil. Combine flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and salt in another bowl. Add to egg mixture. Stir until just mixed.
• Drop by tablespoonfuls, a few at a time, into hot oil. Fry about 4 minutes or until golden brown. Turn as needed for even browning. Remove with slotted spoon. Drain on paper towels.
• Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon in a re-sealable food storage bag. Gently shake fritters in cinnamon-sugar mixture.
• Mix syrup and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds or until warm.
• Place fritters in a shallow serving bowl. Drizzle with warm syrup. Serve warm.
