Fresh Peach Fritters

Ingredients

• vegetable oil for frying
• 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 pinch ground nutmeg
• 3 ounces vanilla yogurt
• 0.25 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1 egg
• 1 cup peeled and diced fresh peaches, or more to taste

Steps

1. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and salt together in a medium bowl until well combined. Beat vanilla yogurt, heavy cream, and egg together in a large bowl until smooth; mix in flour mixture until a sticky dough forms. Fold in peaches until evenly distributed.
3. Drop spoonfuls of dough, in batches, into hot oil; fry until fritters are golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain using a slotted spoon.
