Instructions

Peel and dice the peaches. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
In another bowl, beat eggs with milk and vanilla.
Stir wet ingredients into dry until just combined. Fold in peaches.
Heat oil to 350°F in a deep skillet or Dutch oven.
Drop heaping tablespoons of batter into the oil. Fry 2–3 minutes per side.
Drain on paper towels.
Mix glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle or dip the tops of warm fritters.
Serve immediately or store as directed.

Notes

Fritters are best served fresh, but leftovers can be stored for up to 2 days.
Reheat in the oven to regain crispiness.
For a spiced version, add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the batter.
