Peach Fritters

Peach Fritters:

• 1 generous cup cubed fresh peach (about 1 very large, or 2 small peaches)
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch ground nutmeg
• 1 pinch ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon panko breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup self-rising flour

 

Directions

Step 1

Add cubed peaches to a bowl and toss well with 2 tablespoons sugar. Coverand let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Peaches will release their juice and a syrup will form at the bottom of the bowl.

Step 2

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Stir vanilla extract, nutmeg, cinnamon, and panko breadcrumbs into peaches. Add self-rising flour and stir until batter is no longer dry or sticky but fully moistened, about 1 minute. Rest batter for 3 to 5 minutes before frying.

Transfer 6 heaping spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, and fry for 90 seconds. Carefully tip fritters over to the other side and fry 90 seconds more. Flip again, and cook 1 minute more.

Remove to cool on a rack until just barely warm.
