Appelbeignet

Appelbeignet is a simple Dutch dessert prepared by dipping apple slices in batter, then frying them in hot oil. Because the apples' core has been taken out and the batter puffs up when fried, appelbeignets look visually similar to doughnuts, although they are technically not.

It is recommended to use apple varieties which are not too tangy nor too juicy. Serve them warm, preferably dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar.
