Cinnamon Apple Dessert Rings

We tried one DELICIOUS dessert this evening because Rusty and I were both a little peckish. Think of an onion ring, but dessert form and it's the basic idea. The ingredients and instructions are below with pictures. I adapted the recipe from Diethood because their recipe is for 8-10 servings and I only needed enough for the two of us.


Ingredients:

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 tsp (pinch) baking powder
1/8 tsp (pinch) salt
1/2 cup plain yogurt (I used Greek because that's all I had in the fridge)
2/3 egg (estimated)
1 Granny Smith Apple
Oil for frying
1/4 sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

Directions:
  1. In a small mixing bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl whisk together yogurt and egg until well combined.
  3. Whisk yogurt mixture into flour mixture and set aside.
  4. Slice apple and using a round small cookie cutter (or knife) cut "rings" out of the middle of the slices.
  5. In a deep fryer or skillet, heat the oil over medium-low heat to 375 degrees.
  6. Ding the apple rings in the batter, then place in skillet (1-2 minutes per slice or until golden brown, turning once).
  7. In a bowl or plate, combine sugar and cinnamon and mix well.
  8. Sprinkle sugar mixture over apple rings while still hot.
  9. Serve immediately and ENJOY!

Here's the directions in pictures:

Ingredients:


Take a Granny Smith apple and slice. Use a small, round cookie cutter to create rings.


Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl and the yogurt and egg in another. Then whisk together. While the rings are frying, mix together sugar and cinnamon. Both mixtures can be seen below.


Dip the apple rings into the batter.


Place the rings in your deep fryer or skillet. Leave for 1-2 minutes on each side.

(I just had to do a slow-mo of the deep fryer)

Sprinkle the sugar mixture onto the rings while still hot and serve immediately!


Mine aren't too pretty, but they tasted delicious and quick. How did your's turn out? What did you do differently?
