Yield Makes about 24 rings, serving 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup beer (not dark)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar plus additional for sprinkling the rings
4 Granny Smith or Golden Delicious apples
vegetable oil for deep-frying

Steps:

  • In a bowl whisk together the flour, the beer, and the salt until the batter is smooth and let the batter stand, covered, at room temperature for 1 hour. In another bowl combine the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar, on a baking sheet or a shallow tray arrange the apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rings, in one layer, and pour the lemon juice mixture over them. Let the apple rings stand, covered, at room temperature, turning them once, for 1 hour and pat them dry.
  • In a deep fryer or large heavy skillet heat 1 1/2 inches of the oil to 375°F., dip each apple ring in the batter, coating it well and letting the excess batter drip off, and in the oil fry the rings in batches, turning them once, for 4 minutes. Transfer the rings to paper towels, let them drain well, and sprinkle them with the additional brown sugar.

I'm not a big fan of fried foods, but these apple rings were surprisingly light and not greasy at all.

I followed the recipe exactly and my apple rings turned out soggy. I think I might have used too much oil.

These apple rings are a bit more work than some other recipes, but they're worth it. They're so delicious!

I love the combination of sweet and tart in these apple rings. The cinnamon sugar coating is the perfect finishing touch.

These apple rings are a great way to use up leftover apples. They're also a fun and easy snack or dessert.

I've made these apple rings several times now and they always turn out perfect. The batter is light and crispy and the apples are perfectly tender.
