Apple Fritters.
About 10 fine apples, pared, cored, and sliced half an inch thick; juice of 1 lemon; sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg; 3 cups of prepared flour; nearly 4 cups of milk; 5 eggs; a little salt.
Spread the slices of apple upon a dish, and sprinkle with lemon-juice and sugar. Beat the yolks light; add milk, then the whisked whites and salted flour by turns. Dip the slices of apple into the batter, turning over and over until thoroughly coated, and fry in hot lard, a few at a time. Drain upon a hot sieve, and sift powdered sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg upon them. Eat with wine sauce.
