Crispy Caramelized Apple Fries 🍏🍯 – Sweet, Crunchy & Irresistible

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Apples 🍏

1. Peel and core the apples, then cut them into thin wedges, about ¼-inch thick. You can also cut them into fries if you prefer a fry-like shape.
2. Set the apple wedges aside in a bowl of water with a little lemon juice to prevent browning, if desired.

2️⃣ Make the Coating 🧂🍏

1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
2. In another bowl, whisk the egg until well-beaten, then add the flour and sparkling water to create a batter.

3️⃣ Coat the Apple Wedges 🍏🧇

1. Dip each apple wedge into the cornstarch mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated, then dip it into the batter to coat it with the crispy batter.

4️⃣ Fry the Apple Fries 🍏🔥

1. Heat oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 350°F (175°C).
2. Carefully place the coated apple wedges into the hot oil in batches, frying for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
3. Remove the apple fries from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

5️⃣ Serve & Drizzle 🍯

• Serve the crispy apple fries immediately, warm and fresh.
• If desired, drizzle with caramel sauce for an added sweet finish.
• Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
