apple fritters

Deep-fried fruit dough

Apple fritters are deep-fried pastries made with chunks or slices of apple mixed into batter, often dusted with powdered sugar or glazed.

They're a staple at bakeries, fairs, and donut shops: We grabbed hot apple fritters from the stand.

The texture is crispy outside, soft and apple-studded within.
