Ingredients:
Quantity | Ingredient |
---|---|
8 | Bananas |
3 cups | Flour |
1/3 cup | Cornflour |
1 1/2 tsp | Baking powder |
1/4 tsp | Salt |
1/2 cup | Milk |
1 | Egg (separated) |
1/2 cup | Caster sugar |

Instructions:
-
Prepare Bananas:
- Start by peeling the bananas and cutting them in half lengthwise. Set them aside for now.
-
Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, cornflour, baking powder, and salt. Ensure that the ingredients are well combined.
-
Prepare Batter:
- Gradually add the milk to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until you achieve a smooth batter consistency. Set the batter aside.
-
Whip Egg White:
- In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg white until soft peaks form. This will help to create a light and airy texture for the fritters.
-
Incorporate Egg White:
- Gently fold the whipped egg white into the batter, ensuring that it is fully incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this could deflate the egg whites.
-
Coat Bananas:
- Dip each banana piece into the batter, ensuring that it is evenly coated on all sides. This will provide a delicious crispy coating once fried.
-
Fry the Fritters:
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the banana pieces to the oil, frying in batches if necessary. Fry until the fritters are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
-
Drain and Coat:
- Once cooked, remove the fritters from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. While still warm, toss the fritters in caster sugar until they are evenly coated.
-
Serve:
- Serve the banana fritters hot as a delightful dessert option. They pair wonderfully with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
