Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (about one small apple, pureed)
- 1/4 cup erythritol (or your favorite keto sweetener)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Oil for frying (like coconut oil or avocado oil)
How to Make Keto Apple Fritters
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a big bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Give it a good stir until everything’s nicely mixed.
- Add the Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, erythritol, and vanilla extract. Once it’s all combined, pour this into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix until it forms a doughy consistency. If it feels too dry, add a little water or more applesauce.
- Heat the Oil: In a frying pan, add enough oil to cover the bottom (about 1/4 inch deep) and heat it over medium heat. You can test if it’s hot enough by dropping a small piece of dough into the oil—if it sizzles, you’re good to go!
- Fry the Fritters: Once the oil is hot, scoop out about a tablespoon of the dough and gently drop it into the oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan; give them space to fry evenly.
- Drain and Serve: Once they’re crispy and golden, take them out and let them drain on a paper towel. You can sprinkle a little more erythritol on top for extra sweetness if you like!
- Enjoy Warm: These fritters are best enjoyed warm, so dig in right away. You can also serve them with some sugar-free syrup or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat!
