Apple Fritters


Combine two of my favorittes, apples and fritters and you get these yummy bites.  I wanted them to be real chunky with big pieces of apple but it didn't work so well.  It was hard to evenly cook the pancakes with those large chunks protruding.  This is easy to fix.  Next time, I plan to dice the apple into smaller pieces but still big enough to bite into.

 The eating phase of this fritter was a great success.  Biting into the large chunks with a slight crisp to them was out of this world.  The confectioners' sugar made it sweet enough for me.  Without it, I found the fritter a bit too tart.  I added cinnamon to the batter and that was a good move.

Apple Fritters (adapted from Mr. Food)


1 cups gluten-free brown rice flour

1 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon

3/4 cup milk

1/2 egg beater
1/3 cup oil
2 large apples, peeled, cut into chunks (I should have made mine smaller)
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Method:

In a large bowl, combine flour,  sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, milk, and egg.

Mix well.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until hot . 

Add  apple chunks to batter and mix so there are apples throughout the batter.

Drop an ice cream scoop of batter into hot oil. 

Cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until golden on both sides. 

Drain on a paper towel-lined platter.

Sprinkle confectioners' sugar on fritters and serve.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi...

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I ...
