Banana Fritters
Banana fritters are delicious as snacks or appetizers. They are crispy on the outside and soft inside.
Ingredients
- 2 Bananas, Large, Ripe
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) Lemon Juice
- 2 tbsp (30 g) Granulated White Sugar
- 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 tbsp Unsweetened Desiccated Coconut
- 1/4 tsp (1 g) Baking Soda
- 1 pinch Salt
- Vegetable oil for deep-frying
Instructions
- Mash the bananas with a fork. Stir in the lemon juice and granulated sugar.
- Sift in the flour, then add the desiccated coconut, baking soda and salt. Mix into a batter.
- Heat vegetable oil for deep-frying over low heat, as shown in the video. Use two spoons to lower small portions of batter into the oil without overcrowding the pan.
- Fry for about 4–5 minutes per batch, turning when the underside is golden, until golden on both sides. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining batter.

Notes
The video gives a frying time of 4–5 minutes per batch. The existing 10-minute cooking field is an estimate for multiple batches; the full time depends on the number of batches.
