Perfect Pineapple Fritters

YIELDS: 15

We've got a new and fun Perfect Pineapple Fritters recipe that's super easy and super tasty! It's sweet, fresh pineapple with a crunchy batter coating, and it comes together in a cinch! Top it off with some powdered sugar, and you've got a treat that's perfect for everyone!

What You'll Need

1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup vegetable oil
1 pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick round slices, then patted dry
1 cup powdered sugar

What to Do

In a large bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, and egg; mix well.
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Dip pineapple slices into batter, one at a time. Shake off excess batter, then carefully place in oil in batches, if necessary.
Cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until golden on both sides. Drain on a paper towel-lined platter.
Sprinkle the tops with powdered sugar. (If you like them really coated, place powdered sugar in a shallow dish then carefully dip hot fritters in the sugar, coating completely.) Serve immediately.

Test Kitchen Tip

If batter becomes a bit too thick, add a tablespoon or two of milk to it until it’s the perfect consistency to coat the slices.
