Apple draniki are a tender and aromatic dessert from Belarusian cuisine, where potato draniki are a traditional dish. In this recipe, potatoes are replaced with apples, giving the treat lightness and a refreshing fruity flavor. The sweetness of the apples harmonizes with sugar, while flour and egg provide an airy texture. Fried in hot oil, they acquire an appetizing golden crust. These draniki are perfect for a cozy family breakfast or to treat guests. They can be served with honey, sour cream, or cinnamon to enhance the natural sweetness of the fruits. Easy to prepare yet exquisite in taste, apple draniki are a wonderful way to diversify classic baking and bring a touch of freshness to familiar dishes.
