Yes! You can freeze them after baking. Just let them cool completely, then store in a freezer-safe bag for up to a month.

2. What type of apples are best for fritters?
Any sweet-tart apples work well, but Granny Smith or Honeycrisp are popular choices!

3. Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour?
Absolutely! Just keep in mind that the texture may be a bit denser, so you might want to add a little more milk.
