Notes

Dice the apples small so they cook well . I used honey crisp or Gala 
If you make your fritters bigger they will take a little longer to cook
Do not get your oil to hot or you will have an under done fritter on the inside 
These are best eaten fresh but if you have leftover I recommend heating them in the microwave or even the sire fryer .
