👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. You can use a fork or a potato masher.
💡 Conseils de pro: Overripe bananas are best as they are sweeter and easier to mash. - 2
Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon (if using), and nutmeg (if using) to the mashed bananas. Mix until just combined to form a thick batter. Do not overmix.
💡 Conseils de pro: The batter should be thick enough to hold its shape when dropped into the oil. - 3
Heat about 1-2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C).
💡 Conseils de pro: Use a thermometer for accuracy, or test by dropping a tiny bit of batter; it should sizzle immediately. - 4
Carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches.
- 5
Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and puffed up. Turn them gently to ensure even cooking.

Remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with honey, if desired.
