    Ingredients

    • 1 cup all-purpose flour

    • 1/4 cup sugar

    • 1 teaspoon baking powder

    • 1/2 teaspoon salt

    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

    • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

    • 1 large egg

    • 1/2 cup milk

    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    • 1 cup diced apple

    • 2 cups vegetable oil

    • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
