FAQs

Why are my homemade apple fritters soggy? ›

If the oil gets too hot, the fritters burn before they cook on the inside. If the oil is too cool, the fritters absorb all the oil and end up soggy. Use a probe thermometer to monitor the temperature while cooking and let the oil heat back up between frying batches of fritters.

Why do my apple fritters fall apart? ›

If you don't squeeze tightly, the fritters can fall apart in the oil. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

How can I thicken my fritter batter? ›

Add flour to your wet batter! Large veggies have a high water content (which we know equals soggy fritters). But don't stress! Adding flour to a wetter batter will give you the thick consistency you want.

Does an apple fritter count as a donut? ›

Are Apple Fritters Donuts? While Apple Fritters aren't your typical cake or yeasted donut, they are certainly donuts! I use a yeasted donut dough, fill it with cooked and sweetened cinnamon apples, form it into fritters and give them a quick fry in my dutch oven on the stove.

Is baking soda or powder better for fritters? ›

Baking soda (bi-carb) OR baking powder – just a touch, to aerate the batter every so slightly (without it, it's slightly denser); Parmesan – for a good hit of savoury flavour AND to make the fritters extra crispy!

Why aren't my apple fritters crispy? ›

Make sure the oil is hot enough before you drop in the fritters and don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd it, the fritters might not cook evenly. You also want to be sure you're cooking the fritters long enough. Fry them until they're golden brown and the batter is cooked through.

Why are apple fritters unhealthy? ›

Apple fritters are among the unhealthiest doughnuts. Just because a doughnut has fruit it it doesn't mean it is a good choice. Apple fritters are deep fried in fat. A medium sized apple fritter contains approximately 17 grams of fat (almost half the fat from saturated fat) and 450 calories.

What is used to coat fruit for fritters? ›

Batter is also used to coat fruit for fritters.

How do you keep fritters from falling apart? ›

NOTE: If they are falling apart, add a bit more flour to the fritter batter. Place the patties in the hot oil in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip the patties and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until they are golden brown on both sides.

Does baking soda make fritters crispy? ›

Is baking soda or powder best for frying? A pinch of baking soda can help produce crispy fried foods. It reacts with the acid in the batter to create carbon dioxide bubbles. These lead to an airy batter and a crisper, fluffier result.

What makes batter more crispy? ›

Rice flour and cornstarch work particularly well because they fry up crispier than wheat flour. They also absorb less moisture and fat during the frying process, making the products less greasy. This is why rice flour is often used when making tempura because it produces a very thin and crispy, dry crust.

Does Krispy Kreme donuts make apple fritters? ›

Apple Fritters are a classic. Handmade with apple filling, diced apples and plenty of cinnamon, this new fritter is glazed to perfection.

What is the difference between a bear claw and an apple fritter? ›

A bear claw is a folded circle of danish dough that is filled with almond paste and then slit multiple times so they open up in the oven resembling a claw. An apple fritter is a thick batter of diced apples, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice with a chemical leavening that is dropped by the 1/2 cup into a deep fryer.

Is doughnut dough or batter? ›

Doughnuts are usually deep fried from a flour dough, but other types of batters can also be used.

How do you make fritters less soggy? ›

1. Batter consistency is key to good fritters. If too runny, add a touch of extra flour (otherwise fritters soggy inside).

Why are my fritters not crispy? ›

You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of fritter batter into it. If it sizzles and starts cooking immediately, it's ready to go! Also make sure to use enough oil. If there isn't enough oil to fully submerge the fritters, they won't cook evenly and won't crisp up.

How do you fix mushy apple crisp? ›

Your day-old mush will turn back into the warm and crunchy crisp once more if you reheat in the oven at 350°. And for the love of autumn, please do not forget the ice cream. Or the whipped cream. Or the mascarpone…

How do you keep batter from getting soggy? ›

Using ice-cold water definitely makes the batter crispy and light (most importantly, stays crispy too!!) If you use all-purpose flour, it has gluten in it and if you over stir the batter, gluten will develop and makes the batter gummy and absorbs a lot of oil when you fry it and you know what's next! SOGGY!
