SUNNY'S APPLE FRITTERS WITH PEANUT BUTTER CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix the wet: In a bowl, stir together the apples, sugars, pumpkin pie spice, allspice and nutmeg. Set aside.
• Mix the dry: In a large bowl, add flour and a pinch of salt.
• Pull it together: Make a well in the center of the bowl of the dry ingredients and whisk in the beer until combined. It should be slightly thicker than pancake batter. Gently fold in the apple mixture and let it rest 10 minutes at room temperature.
• Fry the fritters: In a large pot, bring oil temperature to 360 degrees F, so when adding the fritters, the temperature rests at 350 degrees F. Once the oil is ready, using a small ice cream scoop or large tablespoon, gently drop the dough into the oil in batches. Fry until golden brown on both sides, flipping once, about 4 minutes total. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate. Serve with Peanut Butter Caramel Sauce.
• Melt the sugar: In a saute pan over medium heat, add the brown sugar and allow it to melt while whisking.
• Melt the butter: Once melted, add the butter and continuously whisk while melting until everything is smooth.
• Add the cream: Turn off the heat and slowly pour in the heavy cream while whisking until smooth. (Don't get hit with the splatter!)
• Add the peanut butter: Add the peanut butter and turn the heat back on to low to help it melt into the caramel sauce while whisking for just under a minute. Remove from the heat, serve warm.

• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and line a 20cm square cake tin with baking parchment. Melt the chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, or do this in short bursts in the microwave.

Fold everything together quickly, then scoop half of the mixture into the tin. Dot over spoonfuls of the peanut butter, then scoop the rest of the brownie mixture over the top and gently ripple the two together using a cutlery knife or skewer. Bake for 30 mins until the brownies are set and slightly cracked on top. Leave to cool completely in the tin.
• If you're making the sauce, tip the sugar and cream into a small pan and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring until you have a thick toffee sauce. Season with a pinch of sea salt. Cut the brownies into squares and serve with ice cream and the warm sauce, if you like. Will keep in an airtight container for up to three days.
