In medium bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a second bowl, whisk together milk, brandy, egg yolk,
and melted butter. Gradually stir into dry ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
Mix together cinnamon and sugar. Sprinkle over both sides of apple slices, saving remainder to dust over finished fritters.
Sprinkle slices lightly with nutmeg.
In clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry. Fold into reserved batter. Dip several apple slices into batter to coat
evenly, letting excess drip off. Carefully place 1 to 2 slices at a time into preheated oil. Deep fry at 375° for 3 to 4 minutes,
turning once. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle both sides with reserved cinnamon and sugar mixture. Best served warm.

To prepare fresh jalapeño peppers: rinse, cut in half lengthwise, remove seeds and stems, place in boiling water and remove
after 2 minutes; drain well. To prepare canned jalapeño peppers: drain, cut in half lengthwise, and remove seeds and stems.
Fill each pepper half with cream cheese until slightly rounded. Place
beat egg with milk. In a third bowl, prepare breading by combining bread crumbs, onion salt, garlic salt, and oil. Stir in flour
and sugar until mixed thoroughly. Roll each pepper in flour, dip in egg mixture, and then cover with breading. For a heavier
breading, dip in egg mixture again and cover with breading a second time. Gently set aside until ready to deep fry.
Deep fry at 375° approximately 1 to 2 minutes or until golden brown. (Tip: Remove immediately if cream cheese filling appears
through the coating.) Place fried peppers on paper toweling. Serve warm. If desired, serve with salsa.
VARIATIONS: Substitute shredded cheddar cheese in place of cream cheese filling. Pack firmly. Or, substitute a mixture of
cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese in place of cream cheese filling.
