Fritters and Waffles

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Prepare a fritter batter using Royal Baking Powder.

  2. For fruit fritters, make the batter thin; for plain fritters, make it thick enough to hold shape.

  3. Heat the fat in a frying kettle until smoking hot.

  4. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot fat; they will sink initially.

  5. As they cook, the fritters will rise to the surface; gently turn them until golden brown.

  6. Cook for about five minutes, testing one to check doneness.
