Maybe I did something wrong, but these ended up more like crispy banana pancakes. Plus, they absorb so much of the oil when they cook, the last few ended up cooking in the pan without any oil at all, making them even more pancake-like. They were still good, just not exactly what I was looking for. -
These little treats are addicting. I wanted to use up some bananas and didn't feel like waiting on banana bread. I had some problems trying to evenly fry them. I couldn't find a thermometer so some of my fritters were almost burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. The powdered sugar was just enough sweetness. My fiance said these would be a 10 star recipe if I added raisins to them. (Definitely will next time.) I do think that they were better the next day. Thanks so much. -
I didn't care for these at all, and my guess is that I must not like cooked bananas. For this reason, I didn't rate them.

Just made these for a New Year's Eve snack, and they were quite a hit. So easy to make and very tasty. I used fat-free evaporated milk that I had in the fridge (simply to use it up) in place of the cream, and used our deep fryer to cook them up. Sprinkled some with powdered sugar and tried some with cinnamon and white sugar mix. Both were very good. Thanks very much! -
I just love this, hard to stop eating. I was looking for something simple, yummy, and the ingrediens in my Kitchen. Another winner! Thanks for a great recipe.
