Once the apple fritters are fried, put them on paper towels to remove all excess oil; when frying them, make sure they are well separated to prevent them from sticking. Also, sprinkle sugar over them while they are still hot, and if you want to give them an extra twist, add some powdered spice such as cinnamon.

These apple fritters are a specialty of the region of Trentino Alto Adige, prepared during Carnival with the fruit that sums up the area: apples. In Trentino they grow many different varieties: Golden Delicious, Gala, Winesap, Morgenduft, Fuji and Braeburn, Granny Smith, Renetta and Canada.
