Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Fritter Bites
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, blend melted butter and sugar until creamy. Add the egg, vanilla, and applesauce, mix until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, and then fold in the diced apples.
  5. Scoop out portions of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart to allow for expansion.
  6. Bake for about 10 minutes, then broil for an additional 2–4 minutes until caramelized.
  7. In a bowl, mix powdered sugar with apple cider until you achieve a pourable consistency for the glaze.
  8. Brush the warm fritters with the glaze and allow to set before serving.
