Fritter Batter

Method

Fritter Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until fully blended.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the sour cherries.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry Fritters

    Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, drop the batter into the hot oil, frying in batches. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Cherry Glaze Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare Glaze

    In a bowl, combine the powdered sugar, sour cherry juice, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, add water, a teaspoon at a time, until you reach a drizzling consistency.

  2. 7

    Glaze Fritters

    Once the fritters have cooled slightly, drizzle the cherry glaze over the top of each fritter.
