Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 60 milliliters milk
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 500 milliliters vegetable oil
Instructions
Peel the ripe bananas and mash them in a medium-sized bowl until smooth. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In the bowl with the mashed bananas, add the milk, large egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. The batter should be slightly thick but pourable.
In a deep frying pan or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Scoop tablespoons of the banana batter into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the fritters in batches if necessary.
Cook the fritters for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the banana fritters warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with honey or maple syrup.
