Ingredients
- Fritters
- • 2 cups flour
- • 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- • 2 teaspoons baking powder
- • Pinch sea salt
- • Small pinch baking soda
- • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- • 1/2 cup smooth organic peanut butter
- • 2/3 cup milk
- • 1 egg
- • Peanut or Canola oil, for deep frying
- Chocolate Sauce
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 1 cup water, for double boiler
Preparation
Step 1
To make the fritters: Combine the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a bowl and mix. Add the bananas, peanut butter, milk, and egg and whisk until the consistency is such that it can be balled up in a spoon. In a medium sauce pan, heat the peanut oil to 375 degrees F. Using a teaspoon, delicately spoon the peanut-butter-banana batter into the oil, a few balls at a time and deep fry until they fluff up and become crispy and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Strain on wire rack.
Step 2
To make the chocolate sauce: In a pot, bring a cup of water to a simmer. Add a large metal bowl over top of the pot. In the metal bowl, add the chocolate chunks and whipping cream, then whisk until it melts together.
Step 3
Generously drizzle the chocolate sauce over the fritters and serve.
