Banana Fritters




I have been a horrible blog owner lately, I know. Life has seemed to fly by, we are arranging to move, travel, etc. I can not believe we only have a few months left on our lovely island. I still am in a bit of denial. In a few months we'll be thrown into the snow and these fritters will be a cruel reminder of my time in paradise.

My friend ended up buying 8 lbs. of bananas and sharing them with me. After freezing half, I frantically began using the other half so they would not spoil. Simple, yet delicious, these satisified us for about a week. Midnight, breakfast, really good anytime of the day. But what deep fried item isn't?

I just cut the bananas and dipped them in egg; coated with a mixture of panko, cinnamon, and coconut. Fried in oil. Topped with coconut pineapple ice cream and a sprig of mint. complete perfection.
