Ingredients

• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 cup self-rising flour
• oil for frying
• 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, drained and juice reserved

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Whisk pineapple, flour, milk, and egg together to form a light and fluffy batter.

Step 3

Bring reserved pineapple juice to a boil in a small saucepan. Add white sugar and stir to dissolve; lower heat. Simmer until thickened glaze forms, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.

Step 4

Drop spoonfuls of batter in the hot oil, 2 to 3 pieces at a time, and fry until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Step 5

Drizzle glaze over fritters and dust with confectioners' sugar.
