TIPS:

You can’t use  apples in the recipe. As it is too high in carbs & not a keto fruit. You may swap the presence of apple with low-carb zucchini + apple essence. This combo will give you apple texture & flavor without disturbing your carb count.

If you want to have the perfect fluffy fritters, then the protein powder will work. It helps in raising the fritters.

STORAGE INFORMATION:

The recipe yields around 18 fritters. The sole method to complete them is to host a party at your house.
Pack the remaining fritters in the bag (paper). They will stay fresh at the surrounding temperature in this way.
