Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Begin by dicing your ripe peaches and set them aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Mixing
- In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Slowly pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
- Gently fold the diced peaches into the batter until evenly distributed.
Cooking
- In a deep pan or fryer, heat about 2 inches of oil to 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding the pan. Fry until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate. Dust lightly with powdered sugar while they're still hot.
Serving
- Enjoy your warm Fresh Peach Fritters right away with your favored dipping sauce or topping.
Notes
For best results, use ripe peaches, keep a steady oil temperature, and try different toppings like honey or vanilla ice cream. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze for up to 3 months.
