Lard & skillet
Add lard to a small non-stick skillet and heat to medium heat. Add enough lard to cover the donut almost halfway. Scoop about a 1/4 cup of the apple fritter donut into the skillet.

Drizzle it
Drizzle or dip the top of your apple fritter donut into the glaze and place on a wire rack to set.
Hello! Video shows to add 1/4 cup water, but not seeing it in printed recipe. New to keto baking so needing direction on whether to add water or not. Love all the recipes I’ve tried so far. Thanks!
Thank you for pointing this out! I updated the recipe. It should include 1/4 cup of water. I mis-read my recipe notes when I inputted this recipe in.
