Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas
- 1 cup rice flour
- 0.5 cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
Instructions
Peel and slice the bananas into 1/2-inch thick slices.
In a medium bowl, combine rice flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and sugar. Mix well.
Slowly add coconut milk to the dry mixture, stirring constantly until you have a smooth batter.
In a deep skillet or pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Dip each banana slice into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated.
Carefully place the coated banana slices into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary.
Fry the bananas for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the bananas from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Sprinkle the fried bananas with shredded coconut while they are still warm.
Serve the crispy fried bananas immediately as a sweet, low sodium snack or dessert.
