PINEAPPLE FRITTERS – The Southern Lady Cooks

These Pineapple Fritters are super easy to make and delicious with a cup of coffee!

If you love fritters but hate having to fry them, we love these Baked Apple Fritters! Great twist in a classic and they are delicious.

❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

We love pineapple and fritters, so this was a winner! They’re great warm with a cup of coffee and reheat well, too. We love how crisp they are with a soft, delicious center, and then they’re topped with powdered sugar. Just a great little treat!

WHAT OIL DO YOU USE?

We use olive oil with a high frying temperature to make these, but we have used canola in the past. Canola oil does make them more crispy but we like to fry with olive oil whenever we we can. You can use whatever oil you prefer just make sure it’s hot enough. Fair warning, these cook very fast, so pay attention when you need to flip them to the other side.

TOPPING IDEAS

We love these with just powdered sugar, but you could also do a powdered sugar glaze if you want them more like an apple fritter. Honey or syrup would be good as well. They are great with nothing on them too.

REHEAT FRITTERS

You can easily just heat them up in the microwave but the oven works well too. Place on baking sheet, in a preheated oven to 350 degrees. Depending on the size of the fritter, it will take 6-8 minutes.

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple drained
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 cup cooking oil I use Olive Oil

• Whisk together flour, sugar and baking powder in a bowl. Add crushed pineapple and milk. Stir until dough sticks together. (If you think it is too thin, you can add more flour. If you think it is too thick, add more milk). I use 1/4 cup batter for each fritter.

• Have your oil hot and drop into hot oil. Mash out like patties with spatula. Brown on each side. Makes 12 fritters. Drizzle on syrup and powdered sugar or just use the powdered sugar.
