APPLE FRITTERS -- COOK'S COUNTRY

Steps:

• 1. Spread prepared apples in single layer on paper towel-lined baking sheet and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels. Combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in large bowl. Whisk cider, eggs, and melted butter in medium bowl until combined. Stir apples into flour mixture. Stir in cider mixture until incorporated.
• 2. Heat oil in Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 350 degrees. Following step 1, use 1/3-cup measure to transfer 5 heaping portions of batter to oil. Press batter lightly with back of spoon to flatten. Fry, adjusting burner as necessary to maintain oil temperature between 325 and 350 degrees, until deep golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer fritters to wire rack set inside rimmed baking sheet. Bring oil back to 350 degrees and repeat with remaining batter. Let fritters cool 5 minutes.
• 3. Meanwhile, whisk confectioners' sugar, cider, cinnamon, and nutmeg in medium bowl until smooth. Top each fritter with 1 heaping tablespoon glaze. Let glaze set 10 minutes. Serve.

STIR FRIED APPLES & CRANBERRIES

Steps:

• I took one med. size green apple, peeled and cored it. Then I chopped it into even pieces about 1/3 of an inch thick. You don't want them too thick or they won't cook nicely.
• Then rinse frozen cranberries in warm water, this thaws them a little. Place apples and cranberries in a big bowl. Set aside.
• In a small bowl or dish mix cinnamon, nutmeg, arrowroot powder, and Stevia. Add mixture to apples and cranberries and toss to coat well. Scrape the bottom of the bowl as you mix; the arrowroot may cause the mix to stick to the bottom of the bowl.
• In a non-stick skillet melt the butter over medium heat. Add apple/cranberry mixture to the pan. Gently stirring frequently. Cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low or low and cover.
• Cook additional 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender. Don't over cook and don't cook too hot or your cranberries will be really mushy (they should be soft with skins broken).
• Serve warm or chilled. You can serve as is or with sweet coconut cream and or crushed pecans.
