1.remove the clockhouses and the skinn of the apples,cut them in slices (there's a hole in the centre where the clockhouse had been) about 1 cm big.and sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over the slices.

2.make the batter:
flour in a bowl, mix the salt, the egg and the milk bit by bit untill it becomes a kind of pancake-batter.
3. take a frite-pan or other big pan. Pour in the sunfloweroil.about 3or 4 liter.
heat this up till 190 Celcius.
4.take a slice of apple dipp it in the batter so it's covered, when it does not dripp anymore ,let it carefully slip into the hot oil ( don't burn your fingers! I useually use a kind of knitting needle I hang the slice to dripp and than let it slide of the needle in the oil)
5.bake the slices quickly untill they are nice goldbrown coloured ( about 5 minutes) take them out of the oil with a skimmer.
6. let it cool off on kitchen-paper so the oil that's too much can go into the paper.
7. when not too hot anymore,sprinkle with powded sugar and ready to eat. Good luck with it. I hope you could understand because I'm not used to write recipies in English, hehe. Good luck!

Thank you, they sound wonderful. Good thing all the new measuring cups come in both metric and imperial, or we Americans would have to guess at the conversion:)

Happy New Year!

Do you slice apples by hand or use a slicer?? Can I use a deep fryer? These sound soooo Yummy:) Thanx for sharing. Happy New Year!

Deep fryer is fine, especially the electric ones as they keep the temperature constant.

Sounds pretty good to me Gerry, how big do you cut the apple slices? 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 of apple size or just thin slices./

I love your word clockhouses, in English it is apple core or apple seeds. <<<<VBG>>>> :-}
hugs n blessings, Meganne

Thanx for asking bout the clockhouse..that would have really thrown me for a loop:)

We also use canned pineapple slices, that's about the size you cut your apples, so 1 cm or just under 1/2 ".
