Gluten-Free Banana Fritters with Cinnamon Sugar

Ingredients

• 3 Ripe Bananas
• 1 cup Rice Flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 cup Milk (Dairy or Non-Dairy)
• 2 cups Oil for frying
• 2 tablespoons Cinnamon Sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

1. 1In a medium mixing bowl, mash the 3 ripe bananas thoroughly with a fork until mostly smooth. Add the 1 cup of rice flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy) to the mashed bananas. Stir all ingredients together with a spoon or whisk until the batter is well combined and smooth, with no dry spots of flour remaining.
2. 2Pour the 2 cups of oil for frying into a large heavy-bottomed pot or a deep fryer. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches a temperature of 350°F (175°C), using a kitchen thermometer to confirm.
3. 3Carefully drop rounded tablespoonfuls of the banana fritter batter into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, using a slotted spoon or tongs to turn them, until they are evenly golden brown and appear crispy on all sides.
4. 4Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the fried fritters from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Immediately sprinkle the warm fritters generously with the 2 tablespoons of cinnamon sugar.
5. 5Serve the Gluten-Free Banana Fritters warm.
