Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 0.75 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon honey or pure maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
Peel the bananas and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash them until smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and whisk to combine.
In a separate bowl, mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and sea salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined. The batter should be thick yet slightly lumpy.
Optional: Add honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness and mix it into the batter.
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat until melted and hot.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of batter for each fritter into the skillet, spacing them evenly apart.
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
Transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the fritters warm, plain, or with additional honey or maple syrup drizzled on top if desired.
