Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 1 Egg
- 3 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the bananas and slice them into thick rounds, approximately 1 inch thick. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine the peanut butter and place it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften slightly for easier spreading.
Spread a small dollop (about 1 teaspoon) of peanut butter on one banana slice, then sandwich it with another banana slice to create a 'banana peanut butter sandwich.' Repeat with the remaining slices. Place these in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep saucepan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). You can test the temperature by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle and float to the surface.
Remove the banana sandwiches from the freezer and dip each one into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated.
Carefully drop the coated banana sandwiches into the hot oil, frying 3-4 at a time to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
While the fritters cool slightly, prepare the chocolate sauce. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring after each, until smooth and fully melted.
Drizzle the warm chocolate sauce over the fritters and sprinkle powdered sugar on top for garnish if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Peanut Butter Banana Fritters Drizzled with Chocolate Sauce!
