Apple Fritters

I was super excited for summer to start. 

I often dream of Funnel cake and beautiful warm days and always look forward to a local fair or carnival so I can indulge in the things I only allow myself to indulge in during this glorious season.

While looking for a recipe for funnel cake, I came across this recipe for Apple Fritters
On the blog Jocooks.com

The photos on the site looked amazing and the instructions simple enough, so I gave it a whirl..... Well, I think I ate more frying these bad boys up that anyone else in the house. 

They are delicious!!! Simple to make and delicious!!!!
They have such a nice texture to them, inside and out and the apple just adds such a nice sweetness. 

And you can't go wrong with having fruit in your dessert, right?????
