Gluten-free apple fritters make for a great dessert especially during the fall when apples are in surplus.

GLUTEN-FREE APPLE FRITTERS

These gluten-free apple fritters are so quick and easy to make. A few of my other favorite quick fall treats are gluten-free pumpkin spice donuts, maple pumpkin pudding parfaits and chocolate dipped pumpkin spice donuts.

My mother-in-law brought us almost an entire bushel of fresh apples from her backyard tree. While we love to eat them, I knew I was going to have to get creative for using them in baking as well.

They are seriously the most delicious apples you have ever eaten. They definitely make for great baking apples.

In fact, they’d be great in these gluten-free apple crumb muffins from Erin at Meaningful Eats.

So, I have been wanting to make apple fritters for awhile now. However, at this point in my life with four kiddos, I need super easy recipes. That’s why I decided to create these easy gluten-free apple fritters.

They are made with delicious Dry Sparkling fuji apple soda. The carbonation gives these fritters a great texture.

I love using their soda in lots of recipes like our lavender creme brûlée and instant pot pork with cinnamon apples.

They have so many great flavors including lavender, vanilla, cucumber, watermelon and even some great holiday celebration bottles in cranberry or ginger varieties.

They are all lower in sugar than regular soda making them a much more enjoyable drink.

Putting together the batter is simple enough. The hardest part to this recipe is chopping apples into small bite size pieces.
