Ingredients
- 500 g mashed ripe bananas (about 4)
- 180 g (1 cup) rice flour
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 150 g (⅔ cup) caster sugar
- vegetable oil, to deep-fry
- icing sugar, to dust
Instructions
Combine mashed bananas, rice flour, cinnamon, lemon juice and sugar in a bowl. Set aside to rest for 30 minutes.
Fill a saucepan or deep-fryer one-third full with oil and heat to 170°C (or until a cube of bread turns golden in 15 seconds). Working in batches, drop heaped spoonfuls of mixture into oil and fry, turning, for 6 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towel and repeat with remaining batter to make 25. Dust with icing sugar and serve immediately.
