• 1 egg(s)

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Peel the apples, remove the cores and cut into 1/2 cm thick slices. For the beer batter, separate the eggs. Heat the milk with the vanilla. Beer batter: Mix the flour, beer, egg yolks, sugar and salt into a thick batter and add the oil. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form and fold in. Toss the apple slices in the batter and fry in hot deep-frying oil (160 degrees Celsius). Place on kitchen paper and let the excess fat drip off. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. To make the cinnamon sauce: Beat the egg yolks, cinnamon and sugar in a saucepan until frothy and stir in the hot milk. Heat everything to boiling point. The starch should have thickened, but the yolks should not have curdled. Pour through a sieve and serve hot or lukewarm.
