Apple Fritters

Ingredients

• apples
• 1 glass brandy
• white wine
• 0.25 pound sugar
• cinnamon
• 1 lemon rind
• 2 eggs
• 0.25 pound flour
• 1 tablespoon butter
• cold water
• sugar

Instructions

1. Pare the apples and cut them into thin slices. Place them in a bowl with a glass of brandy, white wine, a quarter pound of pounded sugar, finely powdered cinnamon, and grated lemon rind. Let them stand for some time, turning them over frequently.
2. Beat two eggs very light. Add a quarter pound of flour, a tablespoon of melted butter, and enough cold water to make a thin batter. Mix well.
3. Drip the apple slices on a sieve to drain them. Mix the drained apples with the batter, taking one slice with a spoonful of batter for each fritter.
4. Fry the fritters quickly until light brown. Drain them well on paper or cloth. Place in a dish, sprinkle sugar over each fritter, and glaze them nicely.
