Sweet Eggplant Fritters image

What a surprising flavor in these sweet little fritters! Honestly, if we didn't prepare the recipe we wouldn't realize they were made with eggplant. Even proclaimed eggplant haters will love these little nuggets of yumminess. They have a crisp outside with a soft, sweet, and chewy inside. They're good without powdered sugar......

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 c self-rising flour
1 large egg, beaten
1/3 c sugar
1 1/2 c mashed eggplant (peeled and diced, then boiled until soft, drained and mashed)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
enough milk to make a thick batter
oil for frying
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Mix well all ingredients together, except milk. Add enough milk to make a thick batter. (Should be softer than a drop biscuit dough, but thicker and heavier than a pancake batter.)
  • 2. Place about 1/2" of vegetable oil in heavy skillet, heat. When the oil becomes hot enough, drop batter by tablespoons full into the hot oil.
  • 3. Fry until browned. Turn and fry the other side.
  • 4. Drain on paper towels.
  • 5. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • 6. Note: I have made these on a griddle sprayed with butter-flavored cooking spray. I did have to thin the batter a little more than usual, but it worked well enough. It is a great way to take out some of the calories and cholesterol if you are concerned about that.
