Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium ripe bananas
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 180 milliliters milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 500 milliliters vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Instructions
Peel and slice the bananas into halves, then again in half lengthwise so you have four pieces per banana.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
Gradually whisk in the milk and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F). Use a thermometer to ensure the correct temperature.
Dip each banana piece into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
Carefully place the coated banana pieces into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Fry the bananas for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried bananas from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Sprinkle the fried bananas with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve the crispy fried bananas warm as a delightful dessert or snack.
