Ingredients
  

2 large apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp), peeled and diced

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup milk

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Oil for frying (such as vegetable or canola)

Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apples: Peel and dice the apples into small cubes, about 1/4 inch in size. Set aside.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.

        Create the Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; it's okay if a few lumps remain.

          Fold in Apples: Gently fold the diced apples into the batter until well incorporated.

            Heat the Oil: In a deep skillet or heavy pan, heat about 2 inches of oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a kitchen thermometer for accuracy.

              Fry the Bites: Carefully drop spoonfuls (about a tablespoon) of batter into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

                Dust with Powdered Sugar: Once all the fritter bites are fried, generously dust them with powdered sugar while they are still warm.

                  Serve: Enjoy your apple fritter bites warm, either plain or with a dip of caramel or sweetened cream cheese if desired.

                      - Presentation Tips: Arrange the apple fritter bites on a platter, dusted with powdered sugar, and garnish with a few apple slices or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an attractive finish.
