Ingredients

Scale

2 ripe but firm bananas
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter or oil for frying

Instructions

Peel the bananas and slice them into thick coins, about 1/2 inch thick.
In a mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Stir until evenly mixed.
Lightly coat each banana slice with all-purpose flour. Shake off any excess flour.
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter or heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Wait until it’s hot but not smoking.
Place the banana slices in the pan in a single layer. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Use a spatula to flip them carefully.
Immediately transfer the fried banana slices to the cinnamon-sugar bowl. Toss gently to coat each piece evenly.
Let the banana bites rest on a paper towel for 1-2 minutes to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Don’t overcrowd the pan to ensure even cooking. Keep the heat consistent to avoid burning or sogginess. Use a light hand when flipping the bananas as they are delicate.
