The road-trip snack drawer has met its match. A packet of crackers looks a little sad next to an apple fritter that practically requires its own plate. This Indiana bakery has been making the oversized treat by hand since 1961, serving it with a light vanilla glaze and plenty of apple-cinnamon flavor.
