Here’s a delicious and slightly healthier twist on fritters using yogurt—Yogurt Apple Fritters 🍏✨ Soft inside, lightly crisp outside, and perfect with tea.
🍏 Yogurt Apple Fritters
Ingredients (makes 10–12 fritters)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup yogurt (plain)
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup apple, peeled and diced small
- Oil for frying
Instructions
1. Make the batter
- In a bowl, whisk egg, yogurt, sugar, and vanilla
- Add flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt
- Mix until smooth (thick batter)
2. Add apples
- Fold in diced apples evenly
3. Fry
- Heat oil in a pan over medium heat
- Drop spoonfuls of batter into oil
- Fry 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown
- Remove and drain on paper towels
4. Optional glaze
- Mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar + 1–2 tbsp milk
- Drizzle over warm fritters
🔥 Tips
- Cut apples small so they cook through
- Don’t overcrowd pan
- Keep heat medium (too hot = outside burns, inside raw)
- Use thick yogurt for better texture
🍯 Variations
- Add raisins or chopped nuts
- Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar instead of glaze
- Air fry version: brush lightly with oil and cook at 180°C (360°F) for 8–10 minutes
These come out soft, fluffy, and slightly tangy from yogurt—really addictive 😋
If you want, I can give you a baked (no-fry) version that’s lighter but still delicious 🍏
