Method
Preparation of Fried Bananas
- 1
Prepare the Bananas
Peel the ripe bananas and cut them in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 3 pieces, creating manageable sizes for frying.
- 2
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Gradually add water while whisking until you achieve a smooth batter consistency.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small amount of batter in; if it sizzles and rises, it’s ready.

Fry the Bananas
Dip the banana pieces into the batter, ensuring they are well-coated. Carefully place them in the hot oil, a few pieces at a time, and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
