Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F and grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
In another large bowl, combine melted butter and sugar until mixed; then add egg, vanilla extract, and applesauce.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined; gently fold in diced apples.
Drop tablespoon-sized portions onto the prepared baking sheet spaced apart.
Bake for about 10 minutes until golden brown; then broil for 2–4 minutes until glaze caramelizes.
Prepare the glaze by whisking powdered sugar with apple cider/juice until pourable; brush over warm fritters.
