Add Flour:

Fold in Apples:

Fry the Fritters:
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pan to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius).

- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Serve:
- Once drained, dust the warm fritters generously with powdered sugar (icing sugar) for a sweet finishing touch.
