Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Ensure there are no lumps for a better texture.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring continuously until a thick batter forms.
Slowly incorporate the unsweetened almond milk into the batter, mixing until smooth and well combined.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add coconut oil. Once the oil is hot, scoop spoonfuls of the batter into the pan, forming small fritters.
Cook the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Adjust heat if necessary to prevent burning.
Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the banana fritters warm, on their own or with a topping of your choice, such as fresh fruit or a dollop of yogurt.
