Calories: 220kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup sifted all purpose flour divided
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1/3 cup milk plus 3 tbsp
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp melted butter
- 2 firm bananas peeled and cut into 4 pieces
- 1 1/2 cup oil for frying
- Powdered sugar for garnish
Instructions
- Sift one cup of flour with baking powder, salt and granulated sugar.
- Combine egg, milk and melted butter until smooth then add to dry ingredients and mix until batter is smooth yet stiff.
- Roll banana pieces in remaining ¼ cup of flour then shake off (the extra flour helps to create an adhesive before dipping into the batter); dip into fritter batter, completely coating pieces with batter.
- Fry in oil at 375 degrees until golden brown, turning fritters to brown evenly on all sides; drain on paper towels; sprinkle when hot with powdered sugar and serve with caramel sauce if you so desire!!
Notes
You can store any leftovers in the fridge for about 2 days. The air fryer is great for reheating and making super crisp.
