The past weekend I had a few friends over for an impromptu dinner.For dessert I planned to shock and delight them with banana fritters.I fried up some overripe bananas after our main,dusted them with cinnamon and confectioner's sugar and drizzled dark chocolate over-Amazing 6 forks digging into a platter bursting with fried bananas..It was such magical fun.

How To Make banana fritters

  • 1
    Create batter by cutting butter into flour then adding the fennel, egg, milk and sugar. You're aiming for a pourable/drop-able consistency. Let rest for one hour.
  • 2
    Once the dough has rested, gently mix in the baking powder. Dip your sliced banana in the batter and then drop them into your medium-hot frying oil. They are done when they reach a golden brown.
