APPLE FRITTERS N COOKIES



I don't have too much to say about these apple fritters, except that they were whipped up by me, on a whim, when the bf requested them one morning for breakfast. As per usual, I hit the Google with the standard "vegan + recipe I want" formula, and apparently struck gold. I stumbled upon this recipe, doubled it, and veganized it, using two different egg substitutes commonly used in vegan baking - flax seed meal mixed with water, and soy yogurt - and the results were delicious deep-fried goodness.



The original recipe calls for a sugar glaze, which sounds like it could only lead to further awesomeness, but it was early and I was feeling lazy, so a plain old dusting of confectioner's sugar did the trick lusciously. So lusciously, in fact, that when my awesome friends over at the Hit Factorie informed the gang that there was to be a cooking-themed Hit Book!, a Hit Cook! if you will, I knew these bad boys had to be in there. Plus, since it's my most favoritest cookie of all time, and another best case scenario for veganizing a classic recipe, I threw my Peanut Butter PMS Cookies in the mix for good measure. Behold! The final Hit Cook! lineup:



An extra-special thanks must be given to the bf, who is an extremely skilled deep-fryer, and was therefore charged with realizing the apple fritter dream.
