Steps

1

Prepare Batter

In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork. Add the egg, milk, and granulated sugar, then whisk until smooth. In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined into a thick batter.

2

Fry Pancake Balls

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Using a tablespoon, drop small dollops of batter into the hot oil, forming the balls. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry the balls for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.

3

Serve Warm

Remove the cooked banana pancake balls to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve immediately, dusted with powdered sugar, or with maple syrup or chocolate sauce, as desired.

Extra Tips

Use very ripe bananas, as they are sweeter and easier to mash.

Do not overmix the batter; just combine until barely mixed for softer pancake balls.

Serve warm with a dusting of powdered sugar, maple syrup, or melted chocolate.
