- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup 2% blended cottage cheese
- ¼ cup powdered sugar

- Allow the glaze to firm up for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Make sure to evenly coat the apple pieces with sugar for the best flavor.
Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of your fritters for perfect doneness.
These fritters are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days.
