How to Make Banana Fritters With Brandy Sauce

  1. In a large bowl, mash bananas. Add flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, and melted butter.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  5. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, frying until golden brown on both sides (about 2-3 minutes per side).
  6. Remove fritters and drain on paper towels.
  7. For the brandy sauce: In a saucepan, combine brandy, heavy cream, and vanilla extract.
  8. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce slightly thickens (about 5-7 minutes). Do not boil.
  9. Serve warm banana fritters immediately, drizzled generously with brandy sauce and dusted with powdered sugar.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
