Air Fryer Apple Fritter

About This Recipe

Crispy on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside—this healthier spin on the classic apple fritter is awfully close to the real deal with a fraction of the fat and calorie content.

Ingredients

• 1/2 C 60g All Purpose Flour
• 2 Tbsp 24g Brown Sugar*
• 1 tsp Baking Powder
• 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt (or 1/8 tsp table salt)
• 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp Ground Nutmeg
• 1/2 Honeycrisp or Pink Lady Apple (peeled and finely diced (40g))
• 1 Tbsp 14g Butter
• 3 Tbsp 42g Fat Free Greek Yogurt**
• 2 Tbsp 18g Powdered Sugar*
• 1/2 Tbsp 7g Water

Instructions

1. Mix the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a large bowl.
2. Use a fork or pastry blender to cut the butter in until it's crumbly (resembling wet sand) and no longer visible.
3. Add the diced apple and toss to coat before adding the Greek yogurt. Continue tossing/stirring everything together until a crumbly dough begins to form (a fork works fine for mixing).
4. Empty the dough onto a flat surface and use your hand to form a ball of dough. Press the dough flat into a rough 6"x4" oval shape about 1/4"-1/2" thick. Don't worry about the perfect size/shape here.
5. Spray an air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray before placing the dough in and air frying at 375ºF for 12-14 minutes until golden brown on top.
6. For the glaze, mix the powdered sugar and water together and pour/brush over the fritter as it comes out of the air fryer.
