Peach Fritters

Ingredients

• 2 large, firm Peaches (Fresh or canned (in syrup, drained))
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1 Egg
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 1 tablespoon Noyeau liqueur (or Amaretto) (Optional)
• 1 cup Vegetable oil (For frying)
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (For dusting)

Instructions

1. 1If using fresh peaches, peel and slice them into 1/4-inch thick slices. If using canned peaches, drain them well and select only the firm pieces.
2. 2In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, egg, and milk until smooth. Stir in the liqueur (if using).
3. 3Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350°F (175°C).
4. 4Dip each peach slice into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Carefully place the coated peach slices into the hot oil, a few at a time, without overcrowding the fryer. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
5. 5Dust the peach fritters with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
