Baked Apple Fritters

Ingredients:
For the Fritters:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2/3 cup milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced

For the Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1-2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
In another bowl, mix together milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the diced apples.
Drop spoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each fritter.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the fritters are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
Once the fritters are done, let them cool for a few minutes before drizzling with the glaze.
