Acacia flowers still on the stems
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 eggs
3/4 cup whole milk
2/3 cup beer
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp fine salt
2 1/2 cups oil, for frying the fritters | use vegetable or canola oil

For Serving
Powdered sugar for dusting
Honey for drizzling (a great time to try out this Fennel Seed Infused Honey)

Directions

Step 1

Mix the flour, eggs, milk, beer, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt in a bowl until it becomes a well-incorporated smooth batter. Cover and set aside to rest at room temperature for one hour.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a deep pan.

Step 3

Once to oil is hot enough to fry, dip the flowers in the batter, carefully shake off any excess batter and fry in batches. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry until the fritters become golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes on each side.
