DELICIOUS HOMEMADE APPLE FRITTERS


apple fritters



These "Delicious Homemade Apple Fritters" are rich and a favorite of mine. This recipe incorporates fresh, tart-sweet baking apples cooked in cinnamon and unsalted butter. Then embedded in the rich basic donuts dough, fried, and drizzled with a maple glaze.

_____________________________________



Ingredients


Basic Yeast Donuts

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 sweet-tart baking apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch chunks 1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of fine sea salt
Flour, for dusting
Vegetable oil for frying

Directions

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, stir together 2 cups of the flour, the yeast, sugar, and salt. 
Add the warm milk, vanilla, and egg yolks. 
Mix until smooth. 
Add the remaining flour and the butter and mix until incorporated. 
Continue to mix on medium speed until the dough is soft and smooth (it will be slightly sticky). 
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or damp towel and set in a draft-free warm place to rise for 1 hour, or refrigerate for up to 12 hours.
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.  
Add the apples to the pan and sprinkle with the sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. 
Cook, stirring, until tender and the liquid becomes a syrupy glaze, about 10 minutes. 
Set aside and let cool completely.  
Roll the dough out to a 1/2-inch thickness. 
Spread the apple mixture onto half of the dough.
Then fold the other half over the apples.
Using a large knife or a bench scraper, cut the dough into 1/2-inch strips. 
Now cut the strips into 1/2-inch pieces in a cross pattern. 
Scoop up the pieces and rearrange, cutting them again in a cross pattern (make sure the apples are well dispersed throughout the dough).
Flour your hands really well and form the dough into a log measuring 12 inches long and about 3 inches wide.
Sprinkle the log with flour and slice it crosswise into 12 pieces. Coat 2 rimmed baking sheets with flour.
Transfer the uncooked apple fritters to the baking sheets, smashing the pieces of dough and apple together. 
Tuck in any apples that stray, and press each fritter into a flat round (make sure you really press the pieces together and flatten before you let them rise, or the fritters will come apart during frying).
Cover with plastic wrap and set in a draft-free warm place to rise for 25-30 minutes.
Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with at least 2 inches of oil (the oil should not come more than halfway up the pan). 
Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 350°F.
Using a spatula, carefully and gently lower 1 or 2 fritters into the oil; don’t crowd them.
Fry for 1 to 2 minutes per side, turning a few times, until the fritters are light golden brown and cooked through. 
Remove with a spider, drain on a wire rack over a paper towel, and let cool slightly before glazing. 
Repeat with the remaining fritters.  
While the fritters are warm, dip the rounded side into the maple glaze, letting the excess drain back into bowl.
Place back on the rack to set.

Choose Preferred Topping  

Maple Glaze

2 cups powdered sugar, aka confectioners sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons maple extract
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Warm water.

Directions


In a large bowl add sugar, maple, and vanilla.
Slowly add warm water and mix well as needed.
Until it is soupy but not so thin that the fritter instantly absorbs it.

Seared Flounder and Summer Panzanella with Toasted Sesame Seeds


Seared Flounder & Summer Panzanella


My secret weapon is "Seared Flounder & Summer Panzanella with toasted sesame seeds, Corn, Shishito Peppers and Thai Basil". This traditional Tuscan salad combines corn, plum tomatoes and an heirloom cucumber, as well as two specialty ingredients: shishito peppers and Thai basil. Shishitos are sweet and generally mild, but about one in every ten is hot (so be careful)! Thai basil is a cooling, anise-like variety of the herb that perfectly completes the salad. Served alongside seared garlic flounder fillets is delicious.


Ingredients

Serves: 4
About 560 calories
20-30 min.

4 Flounder Fillets
2 ears of fresh corn
1 large baguette
4 plum tomatoes
3 cloves garlic
2 seedless cucumbers
2 oz. Shishito peppers
1 ½ bunch Thai basil
3 oz. Castelvetrano Olives
3 ½ Tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
2 shallots
2 Tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
Sea Salt
Fresh Black Pepper

Olive Oil


Directions

Pre heat your oven to 400 degrees F.

Rinse and dry the fresh vegetables.

Cut the baguette in half lengthwise.

Peel the garlic and set aside.

Remove and discard the husks and silks of the corn.

Cut the corn kernels off the cob; discard the cob.

Large dice the tomatoes.

Cut off and discard the ends of the cucumber; dice.

Remove and discard the shishito pepper stems; halve the shishitos on an angle.

Pick the basil leaves off the stems; discard the stems.

Using the flat side of your knife, smash the olives; remove and discard the pits, then roughly chop.

Peel and thinly slice the shallot; place in a bowl with the red wine vinegar.

Make Garlic Croutons:

Place the baguette halves on a sheet pan, cut sides up; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Toast in the oven 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Remove from the oven.

When cool enough to handle, rub the cut sides of the toasted baguette halves with the garlic clove; set garlic cloves aside.

Transfer to a clean, dry work surface.

Large dice the baguette halves.

Cook Corn:

While the baguette halves toast, in a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot.

Add the corn; season with salt and pepper.

Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 4 minutes, or until softened.

Transfer to a large bowl.

Cook Shishto Peppers:

In the pan used to cook the corn, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot.

Add the shishito peppers; season with salt and pepper.

Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until browned on all sides.

Transfer to the bowl of cooked corn.

Cook the Flounder:

Pat the flounder dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper on both sides.

Mash garlic cloves, finely chop.

In the pan used to cook the shishito peppers, and garlic, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot.

Add the seasoned flounder, skin sides down first.

Cook 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked to your desired degree of doneness.

Make the Panzanella:

Add the garlic croutons, tomatoes, cucumber, olives and basil to the bowl of cooked corn and shishito peppers; season with salt and pepper.

Add the shallot-vinegar mixture and a drizzle of olive oil.

Toss to thoroughly combine and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Divide the cooked flounder and panzanella between 4 plates, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top and serve.
