Elvis’s Banana Fritters (Dairy)

What You’ll Need

  • 2 cups vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 2 ripe bananas, finely chopped
  • Confectioners’ sugar for sprinkling

What to Do

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat oil to 375 degrees F.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add egg yolks, milk, vanilla, and peanut butter, stir until smooth; mixture will be stiff. Stir in bananas.
  3. Gently drop banana mixture by heaping tablespoons into hot oil, a few at a time. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked in center, turning over during cooking. With a slotted spoon, remove fritters to a paper towel-lined platter. Repeat with remaining batter.
  4. Let cool 5 minutes, then sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar and serve warm.
