    Soft Raisin Fritters | Gluten free * Vegan

    These gluten free vegan raisin fritters are so soft inside and the right amount of crunchy outside, that you won’t be able to stop eating them!

    The batter is ready in five minutes and you will only need few ingredients and just a couple of naturally gluten free flours, as in white rice flour and starch.

    Just a couple of notes before I leave you to the recipe!

    Plant-based yogurt: which one is best and why

    I suggest to use plain plant-based yogurt, without any flavouring, like vanilla, or fruit or else. In my experience the only flavoured one that works well in this recipe is lemon yogurt.
    Soy yogurt would be the best option, as soy proteins do a better job at replacing the egg, but coconut or rice yogurt are ok too.
    Should you want to use oat yogurt, please make sure it is certified gluten-free.


    My tip

    When you start frying, start with just one (tea)spoonful of batter.
    If the fritter gets quickly dark, it means the oil is too hot, it will burn the outside and leave the inside uncooked.
    In this case, lower the heat, wait a minute and try again with another ball of batter.
    For the best results, fritters need to take a few minutes to become nice and golden.

    In Italy we usually make these fritters for Carnival, in February and I thought I'd make them in a gluten free vegan version too so that everyone can enjoy them 🙂 And not only in February of course!

    I really hope you will make these fritters!
