Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 48 servings 2 quarts oil for frying 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder ½ teaspoon baking soda ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon ½ teaspoon nutmeg ¼ teaspoon ground cloves ¼ teaspoon salt ½ cup white sugar ¼ cup firmly packed light brown sugar 2 large eggs 2 tablespoons vegetable oil ¼ cup milk 1 cup unsweetened applesauce ½ teaspoon vanilla extract Directions Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt together onto a piece of waxed paper. In a large bowl, beat sugar, brown sugar, and eggs with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Beat in 2 tablespoon oil. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture, alternately with milk, beginning and ending with dry ingredients, until well blended. Stir in applesauce and vanilla. Carefully drop batter by level tablespoons, 3 or 4 at a time, into the hot oil; do not overcrowd the pan or the oil may overflow. Fry, turning once with tongs, for 3 minutes or until golden. Transfer with tongs to paper towels to drain. Cool completely before eating. Editor's Note: We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used. I Made It Print 118 home cooks made it!
