Recipe: Cherry fritters
Cherry donuts recipe. A fairly easy to make cherry fritters recipe that comes straight from my grandmother, the memories come in as I type the text. What a pleasure to taste the still warm cherry fritters, sweetened with caster sugar which crystallizes a little. The children come to measure the baking of the donuts to try to have one, then two, then three …. This year the cherries will not be abundant, time has lost all these benchmarks … The cherry donut a tradition of the Haute Saône with these festivals in honor of this fruit, let’s not forget kirch.
