My Mom used to make these Deep Fried Bananas pretty regularly back when frying stuff was still ok when I was a kid. These days I barely fry anything and tend to stick to boiling, baking or grilling in order to remove excess oil from our diet.
But after our many days of hiking I was craving a good old fashioned dessert and we happened to have a bag of bananas on the kitchen table and you can make a basic batter from the staples in the pantry cupboard.
I can’t say I have a set recipe for the batter because I kind of threw everything together and hoped for the best. But the idea is to batter the bananas, deep fry them and then serve with Ice Cream and chocolate sauce or maple syrup.
And let me tell you, it was absolutely delicious!!!! 🤤 My daughter loves cooked banana and she just about inhaled it. My husband isn’t too keen on bananas and even he commented on how good it was.
The trick is to fry them until the batter is gorgeous and golden and the banana inside has begun to cook and soften.
Here’s a rough recipe that you can tweak if needed.
INGREDIENTS
½ cup self raising flour
1 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
Bottle of seed oil in a deep medium pot
Fresh peeled Bananas (as many as you like)
I’ve made a video so that you can see the consistency and then you can add more flour or milk depending on if you need it thicker or runnier.
METHOD
Heat the oil in a pot on medium high heat.
Mix the flour, sugar and milk well. There should not be any lumps.
Peel the bananas and dip them in the batter.
Place the battered bananas in the hot oil.
Fry until golden, turning as needed.
Drain on kitchen towel to remove excess oil.
Plate
Serve immediately with Ice Cream and Maple Syrup or Chocolate Sauce!!!
Now that my family have tasted this yumminess I reckon I’ll be making it a lot more often. You just can’t be calorie counting when this one lands on your plate.
Yuuuuuuummmmmmmm!
Mmhm, yum! This recipe appears simple and I'll definitely give it a try.
Hehe, I have never tried frying banana before. It's a fruit so I just eat it fresh. Coating it with the batter makes it easy to fry. Nice! 😋😋
Hi!! I’ve never been a huge fresh banana fan, but I absolutely love it cooked on pizza, banana bread and now deep friend in batter. It was soooo quick to make. Just keep an eye on that oil!
Ah, banana on pizza! That I have tried before.
Will do! We won't want it burnt. 😄
Next to tiramisu, this is my favourite dessert!!! Even though I'm from Canada, on this, I prefer chocolate sauce over maple syrup. :-).
Oh good! Me too!!! I love desserts so much but I have to restrain myself or I’d be double my current size 😂
