Fritter: Difference between revisions

The Apple Fritter is a common fritter in [[Canada]] and the [[United States]]. Commonly found in [[doughnut]] shops, it is typically made from a [[yeast]] [[dough]] made of [[flour]], [[sugar]], [[eggs]], [[milk]], [[butter]] or [[shortening]], and [[baker's yeast]]. The [[dough]] is basically the same as a traditional Canadian/American [[doughnut]] [[dough]]. It is flattened out and rolled with chopped [[apples]] and [[cinnamon]]. It is then chopped up into small pieces then reformed. It then is cut into portions and left to [[Proofing (baking technique)|rise]] before being [[deep-fried]] or fried immediately. After done frying, they are dipped in a [[vanilla]] flavored [[glaze]]. It is believed to have been created by [[Tim Hortons]] in 1964 as one of their two original [[pastry]] items along with the [[dutchie]] [[doughnut]]. There is also a [[quick bread]] version that can be found from recipes online. It is mainly in the [[United States of America]] and is typically made from [[flour]], [[sugar]], [[baking powder]], chopped [[apples]], [[cinnamon]] and [milk]]. It is also [[deep-fried]] and dipped in [[vanilla]] [[glaze]] as the yeasted version. In 2020, [[Mcdonald's]] announced that they will be serving apple fritters along with two other [[pastry]] items all day.
