Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
Vegetable oil (for frying; about 4 cups)
1 cup gluten-free old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup rice flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 large egg
1/2 cup (or more) club soda
2 large crisp apples, peeled, cored with an apple corer, sliced into 1/4"-thick rings
Special Equipment
A deep-fry thermometer

Steps:

  • Whisk 1/2 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a shallow bowl; set aside.
  • Fit a large pot with thermometer and pour in oil to measure 3". Heat over medium-high heat until thermometer registers 375°F.
  • Meanwhile, pulse oats in a food processor to a coarse powder. Transfer to a large bowl and whisk in rice flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Whisk in egg and 1/2 cup club soda, adding more soda by the tablespoonful until the consistency of pancake batter.
  • Working in batches and maintaining oil temperature, dip apple rings in batter and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer fritters to a paper towel-lined plate; let drain briefly, then toss in reserved cinnamon sugar.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my fritters turned out really dry.

These fritters were a bit bland. I think they needed more spices.

I had some trouble getting the fritters to brown evenly. I think I needed to cook them for a little longer.

These fritters were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I love that these fritters are baked instead of fried. They're still crispy and delicious, but they're a lot healthier.

These fritters are amazing! The crispy oat coating and the sweet, tender apples are a perfect combination.

These apple oat fritters were a hit at my brunch party! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with a delicious apple-cinnamon flavor. I will definitely be making them again.
