Doughnut - Bread
I didn't think I liked apple fritters, but turns out I just don't like chunks of almost raw apple, surrounded by a doughnut. Maybe I've just been going to the wrong shops, but I've never enjoyed the texture, and always wanted to try them with cooked apples.

Chef John's Apple Fritters
1 tablespoon butter
2 large Granny Smith apples - peeled cored and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 large egg
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
½ cup sparkling apple cider
2 cups vegetable oil for frying
½ cup confectioners' sugar or more as needed
1 tablespoon sparkling apple cider or as needed to make glaze
Bread Step 1 Melt butter over medium-high heat and cook until it turns golden brown 2 to 3 minutes. Add apples and cook over medium-high heat until apples just begin to soften around the edges 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon sugar and continue cooking another 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Drain in a strainer; let cool to room temperature. Step 2 Whisk flour baking powder salt cinnamon ginger and nutmeg together in a mixing bowl until well combined. Step 3 Whisk egg 1/4 cup sugar and melted butter together in a separate mixing bowl. Add cooled apple pieces and sparkling apple cider; add the flour mixture. Stir just until flour is incorporated. Step 4 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spoon about 2 tablespoons batter per fritter into hot oil slightly flattening them out. Cook in batches. Fry on one side until small bubbles appear on the surface about 2 minutes. Carefully flip fritters over and fry the other side until richly browned about 2 more minutes. Step 5 Transfer with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain grease. Cool slightly before glazing. Step 6 Whisk powdered sugar and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Add enough apple cider 1 teaspoon at a time to form a smooth glaze that is just runny enough to drizzle over fritters.
