Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup plain yogurt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Oil or butter (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Toss apple slices with lemon juice and 1 tbsp sugar. Let them sit a few minutes to release their natural sweetness and stay bright.

- Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with honey, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
Notes
- Use tart apples (like Granny Smith) for a bright flavor.
