Sams Banana Fritters Recipes

EASY JAMAICAN BANANA FRITTERS

Steps:

• Mash bananas with fork in bowl.
• Add brown sugar, vanilla, extract, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of salt. Sift in flour and stir with spoon until fully combined.
• Add oil to a 10 inch skillet over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot, drop banana fritter batter in oil by the spoonful. Once one side is golden and bubbles appear on the top, flip fritter and cook until the other side is browned as well.
• Remove fritters and drain on paper towels. Enjoy :)

CRISP BANANA AND PINEAPPLE FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs with the cinnamon using a fork. Place the panko bread crumbs on another plate. Toss the fruit in the egg, then into the crumbs. Repeat this 1 more time to make a second coating.
• In a 6 to 8-quart pan heat canola oil, filled just 3 inches from top of the pan, to 365 degrees F. Drop the fruit into the oil and cook until brown on all sides. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve immediately, drizzled with honey, if desired.

BANANA FRITTERS WITH SPICED GLAZE

Steps:

• For the fritters: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk and sugar until blended. Stir in the baking mix and bananas until just combined.
• Heat the canola oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Using a small ice cream scoop, drop the batter into the skillet. Fry in batches until golden brown and cooked through the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the oil and allow to drain on a wire cooling rack set over a baking sheet.
• For the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, 1/4 cup water and pumpkin pie spice.
• While the fritters are still warm, pour the glaze over top. Allow the glaze to set up slightly before serving.

BANANA FRITTERS

Steps:

• Preheat a deep-fryer or a deep pot of oil to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, a dash of salt and pepper, cinnamon, and the nutmeg, to taste.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and the buttermilk. Whisk into the flour mixture until smooth. Let rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
• Dip the banana chunks in the batter and fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar and serve.

MA BAOMAKA'S MOFO AKONDRO (BANANA FRITTERS)

Steps:

• Place the water and yeast in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Let the mixture sit until the yeast has dissolved and the mixture is cloudy when you stir it, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the sugar and the flour to form a thick, smooth batter. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and allow the batter to sit until it has thickened and smells yeasty, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, line a plate with paper towels and set aside. Heat about 1 to 2 inches of oil in a Dutch oven or other heavy pot set over medium-high heat until it reaches 365 to 375 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer or until a pinch of batter sizzles on contact. Carefully dip the banana slices in the batter, letting the excess drip back into the bowl, and place the fritters into the hot oil, working in batches as necessary, depending on the size of your pot (don't crowd the pot). Fry, turning the fritters with a slotted spoon as they cook, until they float and become golden brown all over, about 4 minutes. Carefully transfer the fritters to the prepared plate to drain. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, if you like, and serve immediately while hot. Pair the fritters with a platter of fresh mango and papaya with lime wedges if desired.
