🍩 Pro Tips for the Best Apple Fritters

Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best texture. 🍏
Don’t overmix the batter—a few lumps are fine! Overmixing can make the fritters dense.
Fry in batches to avoid lowering the oil temperature.
Glaze while warm for the best flavor and sticky-sweet finish.
