Preparation of vegan apple fritters

3. Remove the central part, which is hard and woody, with a knife or the appropriate core remover.
4. Once cut, cover them with the juice of a squeezed lemon.
5. In a bowl, prepare the dough. Mix sugar, cinnamon and baking soda with the flour. Slowly incorporate the frozen sparkling water , and with the help of a whisk, create a smooth and homogeneous dough.
6. Heat the frying oil in a pan.
7. Using a fork, dip the apple slices into the mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, and quickly dipping them into the pan with the hot oil.
8. Cook each pancake for 8-10 minutes , or until they become golden and puffy.
9. Place each pancake on absorbent paper to eliminate excess oil.
10. If you like, add a sprinkling of sugar, or extra cinnamon, and serve.
