Ingredients:

• 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and grated
• 1 cup instant oats
• 1/2 cup rice flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 medium eggs, whisked
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• A pinch of grated nutmeg
• A pinch of kosher salt

Instructions:

1. Begin by preheating your air fryer. Select the “Air Fry” function and adjust the temperature to 400 degrees F. Press the “Start” key to initiate the preheating process.
2. While the air fryer heats up, prepare the ingredients for the fritters. Peel, core, and grate the medium apples. This step infuses the fritters with the natural sweetness and wholesome goodness of apples, a hallmark of country-style comfort.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated apples with instant oats, rice flour, baking powder, baking soda, and brown sugar. The combination of these ingredients forms the heart of the fritters, offering a satisfying texture and a touch of sweetness.
4. Whisk the medium eggs and add them to the dry ingredients. The eggs act as the binding agent that brings all the components together and lends a luscious texture to the fritters.
5. Incorporate olive oil into the mixture, ensuring that every ingredient is well combined. The olive oil not only adds a gentle richness but also contributes to the overall moisture of the fritters.
6. Season the mixture with ground cinnamon, grated nutmeg, and kosher salt. These spices introduce layers of aromatic warmth and depth that enhance the flavor profile of the fritters.
7. Thoroughly combine all the ingredients until you achieve a cohesive batter that’s speckled with bits of grated apple and aromatic spices.
8. Line the air fryer oven pan with a sheet of parchment paper. This step prevents the fritters from sticking and ensures easy cleanup.
9. Using a spoon, scoop portions of the batter onto the parchment paper, forming individual fritters. Arrange them in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
10. Place the pan into the preheated air fryer and let the fritters air fry for approximately 15 minutes. During this time, the fritters transform into golden brown masterpieces, with a crispy exterior and a tender interior.
11. Once the fritters are beautifully cooked and reach the desired golden hue, carefully remove them from the air fryer.
12. Serve the Country-Style Apple Oatmeal Fritters warm and with a sense of rustic delight. Each bite offers a perfect balance of sweetness from the grated apples, warmth from the spices, and the wholesome goodness of oats.
