Apple Fritters Serves 4 to 6 1 large egg, separated ½ tablespoon granulated sugar 3 tablespoons whole milk ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract ½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour ½ teaspoon baking powder 1-2 firm apples, about 8 ounces (preferably Granny Smith), sliced cinnamon sugar for dusting In a mixing bowl, stir together the egg yolk and sugar. Whisk in the milk and vanilla extract and then whisk in the dry ingredients slowly, ¼ cup at a time, until batter is smooth. Whip the egg whites to firm but not dry peaks. Carefully fold the whites with a large rubber spatula into the batter base in three separate additions. Fill the Cuisinart™ Deep Fryer with vegetable oil to the maximum line. Preheat to 375˚F. When oil is ready, lower the basket into the oil. Dip the fruit slices into the batter allowing any excess to drip back into the bowl. Carefully lower fruit slices into the oil. Fry for 1½ to 2 minutes total, turning once so that the fritters are golden and crispy. Lift basket and let the oil drain out. With a pair of tongs, place fritters on layered paper towels to drain and dust with cinnamon sugar. Repeat with remaining fritters and serve immediately. Banana Chocolate Purses Makes 12 to 15 wontons 1 chocolate bar (4 ounces) like Hershey's 1 medium ripe banana 15 wonton wrappers water and cornstarch for sealing wontons Slice the banana into 12 to 15 slices. Break the chocolate into the same number of pieces as slices of bananas. Prepare a work area equipped with a small bowl of water and pastry brush, small bowl of cornstarch, large plate or cutting board dusted with cornstarch, package of wonton wrappers*, and filling. On a clean surface, line up 3 to 6 wonton wrappers at a time. Place a piece of banana in the middle of each wrapper. Place a piece of chocolate on the top of the banana slice. Brush the edges of the wrapper with water. Then fold the wrappers in half. If using square wrappers fold into a triangle and then press the edges tightly with your fingers in order to seal the wonton. Reserve finished wontons on a clean plate dusted with cornstarch. Fill Cuisinart™ Deep Fryer with vegetable to the maximum line. Preheat to 375˚F. When oil is ready place 3 to 4 wontons in the fryer basket in the up position. Lower into oil and fry for 1½ to 2 minutes, until golden and crispy. Lift basket and let the oil drain out. With a pair of tongs, place wontons on layered paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining wontons. Dust with powdered or cinnamon sugar and serve immediately. *Note: when using wonton wrappers, it is important to keep them in their package or wrapped in plastic until you use them, as they can easily dry out. 17
