Instructions

1
In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and water.
2
Mix until the batter reaches a consistency that is not too thick and not too thin. A few lumps are okay.
3
Pour enough vegetable oil into a skillet to cover the bottom and heat over medium heat.
4
Once the oil is hot, carefully pour spoonfuls or cupfuls of batter into the skillet to form the fritters.
5
Fry for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown.
6
Remove the cooked fritters from the skillet and place them on a plate.
7
Serve warm with your favorite toppings like syrup, jelly, or honey.
