Our version of this fall favorite begins with two-ingredient dough (made with self-rising flour and Greek yogurt) combined with a little powdered sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract for a sweet flavor boost. Diced unpeeled apples then go in, and the mixture is divided into pieces and baked until crisp on the outside and chewy-tender on the inside. A quick yogurt glaze is the perfect finishing touch, along with colorful sprinkles for a fun, fresh spin.
Ingredients
Cooking spray
4 spray(s)
Self-rising flour
1 cup(s)
Powdered sugar (confectioner's)
½ cup(s), divided
Ground cinnamon
1 tsp
Plain fat free Greek yogurt
1 cup(s), divided
Vanilla extract
1 tsp
Apple
1 cup(s), unpeeled, finely chopped
Rainbow sprinkles
1 Tbsp
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, 2 tbsp sugar, and cinnamon. Add ¾ cup plus 2 tbsp yogurt and vanilla; stir well with a wooden spoon until just combined and then keep mixing the dough in the bowl with your hands until smooth (about 2 minutes of kneading). Add the apple and knead gently until combined.
3
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, rolling each into a ball. Arrange the balls on the prepared pan and flatten each into a 3-in circle (it’s OK if they’re irregular). Bake until golden brown on top and bottom, 20 to 22 minutes. Remove the fritters to a wire rack and cool for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the remaining 6 tbsp sugar and 2 tbsp yogurt until smooth. Spread the glaze over the fritters; top evenly with the sprinkles.
