Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
  2. 2 Melt butter over medium-high heat and cook until it turns golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. 3 Add apples and cook over medium-high heat until apples just begin to soften around the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon sugar and continue cooking another 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Drain in a strainer; let cool to room temperature.
  4. 4 Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg together in a mixing bowl until well combined.
  5. 5 Whisk egg, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter together in a separate mixing bowl.
  6. 6 Add cooled apple pieces and sparkling apple cider; add the flour mixture. Stir just until flour is incorporated.
  7. 7 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spoon about 2 tablespoons batter per fritter, into hot oil, slightly flattening them out. Cook in batches. Fry on one side until small bubbles appear on the surface, about 2 minutes. Carefully flip fritters over and fry the other side until richly browned, about 2 more minutes.
  8. 8 Transfer with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain grease. Cool slightly before glazing.
  9. 9 Whisk powdered sugar and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Add enough apple cider, 1 teaspoon at a time, to form a smooth glaze that is just runny enough to drizzle over fritters. Enjoy!

Crispy Cider-Battered Chicken Fingers

Instructions

  1. 1 Cut each chicken breast into 6 finger-sized strips, and transfer into a mixing bowl.
  2. 2 Season with kosher salt, black pepper, and cayenne and toss until evenly coated. Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over top and shake the bowl to coat the strips. Toss until all the surfaces are completely coated, and then transfer onto a rack or plate. Place in the refrigerator, uncovered, for at least 10 minutes, or until ready to fry.
  3. 3 Meanwhile, whisk self-rising flour and sparkling apple cider together in a mixing bowl to form a thin batter. Batter should be somewhere between a thin pancake batter and a crepe batter, but still thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Place in the refrigerator to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before using.
  4. 4 Mix Dijon mustard, vinegar, hot sauce, and sugar together for dipping sauce in a bowl.
  5. 5 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  6. 6 Dip each chicken finger into the batter to coat. Deep-fry in batches in the hot oil until golden brown, crispy, and no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 4 1/2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately with dipping sauce.
