The Monday Recipe Blog

If it's Monday, it must be a recipe. Every Monday I will do my best to post an honest to goodness Okie recipe (well, they may not all have originated from here, but I'm absolutely sure that they have all been eaten in Oklahoma at some point). If you have a favorite recipe to share, even if it has never touched the Sooner State, please e-mail it to me at alltrailsleadhome@alltrailsleadhome.com.

Apple Fritters

1 beaten egg
1/2 c. milk
1 T. cooking oil
1 c. white flour
1/2 t. salt
1 1/2 t. baking powder
1 T. sugar
1 c. apples, thinly sliced

Combine the egg, milk and oil. Add to dry ingredients and stir only enough to moisten. Stir in the apples. Drop from a spoon into deep hot oil (350 degrees) and cook until brown. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and eat while hot.

***There was once a restaurant in OKC called Applewoods, and waitresses (we called them Fritter Fairies) would come around every 10 minutes or so with a basket of these hot fritters and put a few more on our plates. Wow.
