Banana Fritters

In the Caribbean, a dish that I grew up a lot with as a kid was banana fritters. They're kind of like banana pancakes but they're made a little bit differently. When they're done these are a crispy and mouth watering dish for breakfast, dessert or as a snack. A personal favourite of my kids.

Ingredients:

1 banana

1 1/2 cup all purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 cup milk

1/3 cup olive oil

1/3 cup sugar

A pinch of salt

In a bowl, mash the bananas, then add milk and oil. In another large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Pour wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Heat the oil in the skillet. Then scoop about a 1/4 cup of batter and drop in pan of oil to fry on both sides. Cook for about approximately 2 minutes on both sides until golden brown.
