1 tablespoon baking powder
04 -
1/2 teaspoon salt
05 -
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
06 -
2 large eggs

3/4 cup whole milk
08 -
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

→ Glaze
11 -
1 cup powdered sugar
12 -
2 tablespoons milk
13 -
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Peel and dice fresh peaches. Set aside.
02 -
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, beat eggs, then stir in milk and vanilla. Combine wet and dry ingredients just until mixed. Gently fold in the diced peaches.
03 -
Add oil to a deep frying pan or Dutch oven until about 5 cm deep. Heat to 175°C.
04 -
Drop heaping tablespoons of batter into the hot oil. Fry for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pan. Remove fritters using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
05 -
Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle over warm fritters or dip the tops directly into the glaze.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Use firm but ripe peaches for best results.
02 -
Let fritters cool slightly before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting excessively.
03 -
Substitute apples or blueberries if peaches are not in season.
04 -
For a different flavor, use almond extract instead of vanilla.
05 -
Store fritters in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days. Reheat in a 150°C oven to restore crispiness.
