Print Recipe

Peach fritters were my grandpa’s favorite treat—he called them “sunshine bites.” We’d sit on the porch, sharing stories while munching on these golden delights, still warm from the fryer. This recipe brings that joy to your kitchen with crispy edges, juicy peach centers, and a sweet glaze that melts into every bite. Whip up a batch and turn any day into something special.
