Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and granulated sugar.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

        Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix!

          Fold in Apples: Gently fold in the diced apples and brown sugar until evenly distributed.

            Scoop Batter: Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop rounded mounds of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each fritter.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the fritters are golden brown.

                Cool and Serve: Let them cool slightly before serving. Drizzle with glaze or dust with powdered sugar if desired.
