Ingredients

Instructions

  • Combine figs and orange juice in small saucepan and heat to a boil. Cover and simmer until figs have softened, about 15 minutes. Remove figs from pan; drain well. Whisk milk and egg together. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt until mixture is smooth. Heat oil in heavy deep skillet or saucepan over medium heat until hot enough to sizzle and brown a crust of bread. Using tongs, dip figs into batter, turning to thickly coat. Fry 1 or 2 fritters at a time in hot oil until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Drain fritters briefly on paper towels, then transfer to wire rack and sprinkle generously with confectioners’ sugar. Serve warm.
