Preheat your air fryer to 300 degrees F. If you don’t have a preheat function you can simply set your air fryer to 300 and let it run for ~5 minutes to reach the desired temperature.
In a medium sized mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl combine the egg, sugar, milk, vanilla and butter. Mix well.
Now add the flour mixture to your bowl of wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold in your apples.
Line your air fryer basket with parchment paper (I like to lightly spray mine with non-stick spray) then drop a heaping 1/4 cup of the batter onto the parchment paper. My air fryer can hold 3 at a time. You will likely need to do more than one batch. You do not want to overcrowd your fritters. I recommend making sure there are a few apple pieces on top to make the noticeably apple fritters!
Air fryer your apple fritters for a total of 12 minutes.
Once cooked you can remove your fritters from the air fryer and place on a cooling rack.
As your fritters cool you can make the glaze by combining the butter, powdered sugar and milk together in a shallow bowl or container and whisking until you get a uniform glaze. This should be a light white color and just a bit runny where it can run off a spoon. If it’s too thick pop it in the microwave for a few seconds (5-10 at a time) until it gets runny again
Now take your slightly cooled fritters and place them face down in the glaze and cover the tops fully- no need to do the bottom (note: you want to see that they’re glazed but the glaze should be see through enough where you can also see the color of the fritter coming through- it shouldn’t be white and it shouldn’t be clear! Somewhere in the middle :) )
Allow to cool fully and enjoy!
