GLAZED FRESH STRAWBERRY FRITTERS
Lately, we have had an abundance of fresh strawberries from our garden, we eat the majority of our strawberries fresh from the garden. A few days ago I shared a simple strawberry smoothie, which tastes delicious and refreshing on a warm spring day. I usually add fresh fruits to my morning yogurt and loved the addition of fresh home-picked strawberries. But enough with the healthy stuff, this recipe is not at all healthy, but in moderation it is delicious! Also, since today is National Doughnut Day, I decided that this recipe will work perfectly to celebrate such a “fatty day”.
When I was in high school, I worked in a coffee and doughnut shop. One of my favorite doughnuts was an apple fritter, and the sour cream glazed, of course. I really love the texture of apples in a cinnamony, crunchy, soft doughnut, but since I had so many strawberries waiting to be eaten, I decided to create these delicious strawberry fritters. They taste even better than the ones from the coffee shop! No yeast is required for this recipe, just a simple batter with strawberries that gets deep fried in hot oil. I do not own a deep fryer so I created a simple one on a burner outside on my grill. I do not fry food often because I cannot stand the smell of a oily house, and I have adapted most of my recipes to use less oil and less frying. But this recipe must be fried for that crunchy and soft texture.
