Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Bananas
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 pieces Eggs
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate sauce or honey (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the bananas and cut each banana into 4 long, even sticks.
Set up three shallow bowls: one with the flour, one with the whisked eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with sugar and ground cinnamon.
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet or deep frying pan over medium heat. The oil should be about 1 inch deep.
Coat each banana stick in flour, then dip into the whisked egg, and finally roll it in the breadcrumb mixture to ensure it’s fully coated.
Once the oil is hot (about 350°F or until a small piece of breadcrumb sizzles when added), carefully place the coated banana sticks into the oil.
Fry the banana sticks for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
Remove the banana sticks from the oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve warm. Drizzle with chocolate sauce or honey for extra sweetness if desired.
