🛕 History
Apple fritters date back to ancient Europe, where fruit-filled doughs were fried as a sweet treat. As apple orchards became central to American farming, the fritter became a classic fall dessert.
The baked version is a modern twist, created for those who want the flavor without frying, oil splatter, or heaviness. It keeps the tradition alive but makes it quicker, lighter, and easier to enjoy anytime.
🧱 Formation (Why These Taste Amazing Without Frying)
1. Baking powder = lift
Gives the fritters a fluffy, tender texture.
2. Apples release moisture
Keeps the center soft and juicy.
3. Cinnamon = warmth
Creates that classic bakery aroma.
4. Baking instead of frying
Still gives golden edges without oil.
5. Glaze = sweetness & shine
Completes the “bakery fritter” finish.
