Fruit and Vegetable Fritters

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Vegetables, Fruit

 Ingredients List

  • 1 c All-purpose flour
  • 1 ts Baking powder
  • 14 ts Salt
  • 2 lg Eggs
  • 2 ts Sugar -- * see note
  • 2/3 c Milk
  • 1 ts Salad oil
  • 1/2 ts Lemon juice
  • Mixed fruit
  • Mixed vegetables

 Directions

* If you are preparing vegetable fritters, omit the sugar. For a thinner
coating, add more milk and omit baking powder. For a fluffier coating, beat
egg whites separately and add to batter last.

1. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together. 2. Beat the eggs until
light and fluffy. Add sugar, milk, oil and dash of lemon juice; add flour
mixture and stir only long enough to dampen. Add a dash of cinnamon to the
flour when making fruit fritters. 3. Prepare fritters.

FRUIT: Apples: Peel, core and cut in 1/2-inch slices. Bananas: Cut into
chunks and sprinkle with lemon juice and sugar. Use canned peaches,
pineapple etc. by draining; sprinkle very lightly with flour before dipping
into batter.

VEGETABLES: Cut into equal-sized pieces to keep frying time approximately
the same.

4. Heat oil in deep skillet or container until about 370 degrees. Cook
fritters until delicately brown, then drain on paper towels. Exact times
will vary. Test one piece of fruit or vegetable to get an idea of how long
to cook. If batter does not cling well enough, add a bit more flour. A very
important point to remember is to have the oil hot enough and keep it at
the same temperature throughout cooking.
