Equipment

  • 2 Large mixing bowl
  • 1 Whisker
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Knife
  • 1 Small bowl
  • 1 Frying pan
  • 1 Frying rack
  • 1 Trigger-released ice cream scoop

Ingredients

  • 500 gr All purpose flour
  • 400 ml Luke warm milk
  • 14 gr Instant yeast
  • 1 pcs Granny smith apple. Cut into small cubes
  • 200 gr Raisins. Soak briefly in warm water to hydrate
  • 60 gr Light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 Liter Oil. To fry
  • Powdered sugar. To dust

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix in milk and yeast. Stir until well-combined.
  • In another large bowl, add in flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until combined.
  • Create a well in the middle of the flour mixture, and pour in the milk-yeast mixture. Lightly whisk together until well-combined.
  • Add in the cut apple and raisins into the batter, and fold in with a spatula until well-combined.
  • Cover the batter with a napkin and place it in a warm room to proof for about 1 hour until the batter double in size.
  • After one hour, take out the napkin, and fold the proofed batter with a spatula until well-combined. Dig to the bottom, because the raisins and apple are usually sink down in the bottom during proofing. After that, cover the batter with the napkin again and let it rest for another 3 minutes.
  • While waiting for the batter to rest, heat up the oil in a frying pan in a medium heat. Once it's hot, take out the batter and fold again with a spatula until everything is well mixed.
  • Scoop in the batter with a trigger-release ice cream scoop to keep it rounder. Fry to about 6 minutes until golden brown. Drain the excess oil on paper towels and serve with powdered sugar. Enjoy! :)
