Potato Apple Cinnamon Fritters #5FIX

5 Ingredient Fix Contest Entry I have an 8 year old son with Asperger Syndrome. Eating any fruits or veggies is nearly unheard of for him. I have become very clever sneaking in items undetected by his sensitive palate. The potatoes add amazing texture to these fritters. He eats them like donuts, and I don't feel so guilty. I used Martha White brand Cinnamon Biscuit mix for these.
