Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 1 large Egg
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.25 cups Blueberries
• 4 cups Vegetable oil
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 4

Gently fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.

Step 5

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.

Step 6

Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, carefully drop small dollops of batter (about 2 tablespoons) into the hot oil. Avoid overcrowding the pot to maintain the oil temperature.

Step 7

Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 9

To prepare the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 10

Once the fritters are slightly cooled, drizzle or dip them in the glaze. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving.

Step 11

Serve the fritters warm and enjoy!
