Serves: 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 tbs baking powder
2 tsp chai spice powder
2 apples, cored, skinned, and cut into chunks
1 tbs Coles apple sauce
¼ tsp vanilla extract
1 tbs brown sugar
1 egg
1 ½ tbs buttermilk
Vegetable oil, for shallow frying
Coles vanilla bean ice cream, to serve
Method
In a bowl, whisk together the egg, apple sauce, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a larger bowl, mix the flour, chai spice powder, baking powder, and brown sugar. Make a well in the center and pour in the wet ingredients. Mix until combined, then gently fold in the apple chunks.
Heat a medium deep frying pan with vegetable oil to a depth of 3 cm and bring it to 180°C.
Using a tablespoon, scoop the batter and carefully drop it into the hot oil. Fry for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towel.
To serve, place two fritters into a bowl and top with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.
