Ingredients

For the apples

• 3 cups diced apples (approx. 3 medium apples)
• 3 Tbsp coconut oil
• 3 Tbsp coconut sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp cloves

For the dough

• 1 cup Native Forest Organic Unsweetened Simple Coconut Milk
•  1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 cup cassava flour
• 1/4 cup Let’s Do Organic Arrowroot Starch
•  1 Tbsp baking powder
• 2 Tbsp coconut sugar

For the glaze

• 1/3 cup coconut butter, melted (sub. 1/2 cup organic powdered sugar if desired)
• 2 Tbsp maple syrup
• 1 Tbsp nut milk, if needed to thin out the glaze

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400F.  Saute the apples in a skillet over medium-low heat with all the apple ingredients until soft.  Remove from heat and let cool while you prepare the dough

2. In a small bowl, whisk the Native Forest Organic Unsweetened Simple Coconut Milk and apple cider vinegar together and set aside

3. In a mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, mix the cassava flour, Let’s Do Organic Arrowroot Starch, baking powder, and coconut sugar.  Slowly add the coconut milk mixture and continue to mix until a thick dough forms.  Add the apple mixture (including any liquid) and mix a few times to incorporate

4. With a large cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.  Bake for 12 – 14 minutes until the tops of the fritters turn golden brown

5. While the fritters are baking, prepare the icing by mixing the melted coconut butter and maple syrup in a small bowl.  Add 1 Tbsp nut milk if needed to thin out the mixture.  Drizzle over fritters while warm and enjoy!
