Fried Bananas

Prepare the Bananas

Peel the bananas and cut them into diagonal slices about 1/2 inch thick.

Prepare the Coating

In a small bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, ground cinnamon (if using), and salt.

Coat the Bananas

Gently toss the banana slices in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well coated.

Heat the Oil

Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Fry the Bananas

Once the oil is hot, carefully add the coated banana slices to the skillet.

Fry the bananas in batches, without overcrowding the pan, until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes per side.

Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried bananas to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serve

Optionally, drizzle with honey or dust with powdered sugar before serving.
