PRINT RECIPE
directions
Heat a deep, heavy bottom pot filled with 1-2 inches of oil, on med heat while you prepare your apple ring batter.
In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, pumpkin spice and sugar.
Add your buttermilk and egg to the flour mixture, stir until combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together the pumpkin spice + sugar for the topping and set aside.
Dip your apple slices into the batter, allowing excess to drip before placing into heated oil. Allow to cook 4-6 minutes, flipping half way through.
Remove apples from oil, place on paper towels to absorb extra oil before dipping and dousing them in pumpkin spice sugar.
Eat while warm.
expiry
Enjoy immediately, store in the fridge and reheat in the oven/ toaster oven until crispy.
tips
The perfect oil temp is 350, you don’t need a candy thermometer, but it definitely helps.
Special beyond the seasonal fervor, pumpkin pie spice delivers all the aromas and flavors of a kitchen filled with fresh baked goods. Fall For Your Food.
