- Preheat some shortening into a deep-fryer until really hot.
- Meanwhile, into a bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
- Mix together beaten eggs and milk before beating mixture, a little at time*.
- *If batter looks too thin, do not add all the eggs and milk liquid [batter should be thicker than pancake batter].
- Peel, core then slice apples into 1/2-inch [2.5-cm] thick rings.
- Sprinkle apple rings with lemon juice; dip apple rings first in sugar and then in batter, until completely coated.
- Deep-fry doughnuts, a few at a time into really hot oil until golden brown on both sides, turning once.
