Apple Fritters 2


4 Eggs
four spoonfuls of fine flour
1/4 pound of sugar
Milk, Nutmeg and Salt as necessary

Take four eggs and beat them very well, put to them four spoonfuls of
fine flour, a little milk, about a quarter of a pound of sugar, a
little nutmeg and salt, so beat them very well together; you must not
make it very thin, if you do it will not stick to the apple; take a
middling apple and pare it, cut out the core, and cut the rest in round
slices about the thickness of a shilling; (you may take out the core
after you have cut it with your thimble) have ready a little lard in a
stew-pan, or any other deep pan; then take your apple every slice
single, and dip it into your bladder, let your lard be very hot, so
drop them in; you must keep them turning whilst enough, and mind that
they be not over brown; as you take them out lay them on a pewter dish
before the fire whilst you have done; have a little white wine, butter
and sugar for the sauce; grate over them a little loaf sugar, and serve
them up.
