Deep-Fried Apple and Brie Bites image

This is a recipe I created after receiving a deep fryer for Christmas. These come out tasting just like little mini apple pies or apple empanadas. Beware: this recipe can get messy, so you will want to make sure you have extra paper towels waiting in the wings.

Time 50m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 Fuji apples - peeled, cored, and diced small
½ pound Brie cheese, cut into very small pieces
20 vanilla wafers, crushed
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
¾ cup milk
½ cup confectioners' sugar
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
oil for frying
20 vanilla wafers, crushed, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Stir apples, Brie cheese, 20 crushed vanilla wafers, honey, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, at least 15 minutes.
  • Beat egg until frothy in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Gradually add flour, milk, confectioners' sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; beat until batter is thick and smooth, adding more flour as necessary to reach desired consistency.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Pour 20 crushed vanilla wafers into a shallow bowl.
  • Roll apple mixture into small balls. Drop balls into funnel cake batter and turn to coat completely. Roll coated balls in crushed vanilla wafers. Place the coated apple balls onto a plate while coating the rest; do not stack.
  • Working in batches, fry apple-brie bites in hot oil until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer cooked apple-brie bites to a paper-towel lined plate to drain and cool.

These are a great way to use up leftover apples and brie. I also like to add a little bit of chopped walnuts to the breadcrumb mixture for extra crunch.
