Apple Fritters

I love apple fritters, so simple to make and so good. Several times a year a go to Lancaster, PA to Amish stores to pick up all my spices and baking goods in bulk. But while I am there I have to get apple fritters, they are the best there. So I had to find and make a recipe that was close to what the Amish make. And these are the best. I am sure you will all love this recipe..
