1. In a blender or food processor, process the flour, salt, egg yolks, butter and cider. Process until smooth. 2. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites. 3. Fold the flour mixture into the beaten egg whites, just until combined. 4. Peel and core the apples; cut into 1/4 inch thick slices. 5. Sprinkle the apple slices with lemon juice and toss with the sugar. 6. Heat 4 to 5 inches of oil in a large and heavy-duty saucepan over med.-high heat until the oil is hot enough to sizzle when a tiny bit of batter is dropped inches. 7. Dip an apple slice in batter - it should be evenly coated with batter, allowing excess batter to drip off. Repeat with several more apple slices. 8. Carefully drop battered apple slices into the hot oil. Cook 8 to 10 minutes or until the apple slices are cooked through and the batter is puffy and golden. *Work in batches so you don't overcrowd the pan*. 9. Drain on paper towels. 10. Repeat until all apple slices are battered and cooked. Let cool., then sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
