2 1/4 c. sifted flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tbsp. oil
1/4 c. milk
1 c. applesauce
1 apple, grated
Cooking oil

Sift together first 6 ingredients. Set aside. Cream together sugars, eggs and oil. Add flour mixture, alternating with the milk until well blended. Add applesauce and grated apple.

Heat cooking oil in a deep skillet or pan until hot. Be careful not to overheat oil. Carefully add batter by the spoonful to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown (they will float to the top of the oil). Drain on paper towels and sift with powdered or cinnamon sugar.
