Hi Christy, Well, you know I just had to comment on this recipe since I happen to live in the Smoky Mountains and know just the restaurant you’re talking about. I’ve loved apple fritters for years and have made them myself twice so far this year and also gone to that restaurant. They sell the best apple butter you can find and it reminds me so much of what my grandmother made on her farm when I was a child. I sure hope while you were here you also tried some of their fabulous fried apple pies. It just wouldn’t be Fall here in the Smokies without apple fritters, fried apple pies and apple butter. Yum!!!

I’ve never chopped the apples that small. I always sliced them, dipped them in the batter and dropped them in the fryer. So many ways to serve them. Ever tried Cinnamon and Sugar, my favorite. I’ve had chocolate, strawberry preserves, grape jelly or jam, honey, syrup, regular white sugar. And when served plain, put several on a plate with a hunk of cheddar cheese. Now I’m going to try apple butter. Thanks for the fabulous recipes.

I just brought back some apples from the Asheville NC farmers market (I live in TN) and was wondering what I was going to do with all of them. Now I’m going to
make your fritters for my ladies on bunco night! Can’t wait to taste them. Just a tip
if you go to the farmers market in Asheville…there is a great restaurant called the Moose Cafe there that I ate at, and they serve biscuits and apple butter with every meal..yum.

i admit that i have never, ever had one, but i agree with Jean in n.c. , they sound good with a light glaze on them like Krispy Cream.
