One thing that totally gets me thinking of fall is Apples! And baking. So apples PLUS baking? Totally FALL! These tasty treats TOTALLY remind me of my grandma Stasiuk.. She often makes them. And this recipe is another one from her.

Really deep fried baking with apples and then a little icing drizzled? Fall, I love you.
