My Dad loves all things baked with apples. Apple pie. Apple tart. Apple crumble. Apple cobbler. He’s an aficionado of baked apple dishes. So I just had to come up with a healthy apple fritter recipe, just for him.
How to Make Oven-Baked Apple Fritters
Prep the apple: Peel and core the apples and cut into small chunks.
Make the batter: Mix the coconut flour, arrowroot flour, and baking powder together. Add the egg, honey, and milk. Once combined, fold in the apple cubes.
Bake the fritters: Drop about one tablespoon of batter onto a prepared baking sheet. Make sure they’re spaced about two inches apart. Brush each fritter with coconut oil and bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
Storing and Reheating Instructions:
To Store: Apple fritters keep really well. You can store these fritters in an airtight container at room temperature for two days, one week in the fridge, and two to three months if you freeze them. Thaw the fritters by leaving them at room temperature for a few hours until they’re soft.
To Reheat: If you have frozen fritters, let them thaw at room temperature for a couple of hours or overnight. To reheat room temperature fritters, bake them at 350ºF for eight minutes or until warmed through. Refrigerated and recently thawed fritters will take about 10 minutes to warm through.
