Słodkie Placuszki z Jabłkiem – Polish Apple Fritters

October 20, 2017 · by polishhousewife · 6 Comments

Słodkie Placuszki z Jabłkiem – Polish Apple Fritters are they fritters, doughnuts, or pancakes? By default, I’m calling them fritters. They’re fried in substantial oil, so I think that rules out pancakes, and since the apple slices are mixed in with the dough before cooking, that doesn’t sound like a doughnut, so fritter is the best pastry still standing.

The batter will be on the stiff side, more like a cake donut dough than a runny pancake batter, and it may seem as if there are too many apple slices, but it will all work out. Stir only until the slices are incorporated, you don’t want to overwork the dough. The dough will beautifully puff up around the slices during cooking.

. . . and then there were two.

These Apple Fritters could be served for dessert, breakfast, even a light supper, anytime you want something delicate and just a little sweet. In their book (available from my affiliate link)  From a Polish Country House Kitchen, the authors suggest serving Słodkie Placuszki z Jabłkiem – Polish Apple Fritters with a simple homemade apple sauce on the side. The recipe involves peeling and coring, and coarsely choppking 3 apples. Pour the apples in a microwave safe bowl and cover with water. Nuke for 3 – 6 minutes, until soft and most of the water has cooked off. Mash the apples with a fork and stir in a teaspoon each of sugar and cinnamon.

The fritter recipe is from Przyslij Przepis.

Smacznego!

          What a nice orchard. I just learned that our figs can only be fertilized by a wasp that crawls in the center of the fruit.

    I like that these don’t call for a deep fryer! They would be great fun to make at this time of year – the apples have been plentiful and flavorful at the market!
