Peach Fritters

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 2 large eggs (beaten)
• 2/3 cup milk
• 15 ounce canned peaches (cut in small pieces, juice reserved for glaze)
• 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1-2 tablespoons reserved peach juice

Instructions

1. 1

   Add the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a medium sized bowl and whisk to combine. Gradually whisk in the milk and beaten eggs to make a batter.

2. 2

   Fold in the chopped canned peaches.

3. 3

   Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy bottomed pan to 375°F (190°C). Drop batter by spoonfuls into hot oil, and cook, turning once, until browned, about 5 minutes. You can also use a small ice cream scoop to make it easier to drop the batter in the oil.

4. 4

   Transfer fritters to a paper towel lined bowl to cool.

5. 5

   Make the glaze by combining the powdered sugar, vanilla extract and a tablespoon of the peach juice. Whisk until smooth and add more juice as needed to achieve desired pouring consistency.

6. 6

   Drizzle the glaze over the cooled peach fritters and serve.
