Notes
Tip
This is such a simple recipe and turns out delicious. It's also super- cheap, so when things are tight banana fritters will make you feel like royalty!
Tip
Don't forget to let the batter stand. It gives the baking powder time to do its thing.
Tip
Be careful when they come out of the fryer. The centres are very, very hot.
