Rhubarb Fritters Recipe

Photo by: Taste of Home Rhubarb Fritters Recipe

I got this recipe from my niece's son. Since we live in apple country, we have enjoyed apple fritters for many years. This rhubarb treat is a nice change for spring when apples are few and rhubarb is plentiful. -Helen Budinock, Wolcott, New York

Rhubarb Fritters Recipe

Prep/Total Time: 30 min.

Yield: 12 Servings

10 20 30

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, separated
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter, melted
2 cups finely chopped fresh or frozen rhubarb, thawed and drained
Oil for deep-fat frying
Confectioners' sugar

Directions

In a large bowl, combine flour, 1 cup sugar and salt. In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk and butter. Gradually add to dry ingredients, stirring until smooth.
Toss rhubarb with remaining sugar; gently stir into batter. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Fold into batter.
In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into oil. Fry a few at a time, turning with a slotted spoon until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm. Yield: about 3 dozen.

Editor's Note: If using frozen rhubarb, measure rhubarb while still frozen, then thaw completely. Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.
