Made these for my daughter’s international food day at school. Crazy easy! Removed Rum and used vanilla- cause…. School. I was worried they wouldn’t make enough and I would need two batches. Wrong! This recipe makes a number of little balls of fried bananas!! I started scooping larger spoonfuls to finish. One batch makes plenty for everyone in the class to try them. Also all ingredients are easily found in your pantry- win!!
I made it and got an extremely thick batter that I couldn’t even stir. I had to add water to get it to an ok consistency. I’m not sure what I did wrong because I did the half cup of milk.
I made this in a wok, with not a lot of oil, as I do not have a deep fryer. Liked it a lot. Not hard to make.
I tried this, and I made few variations to it and it turned out great. Instead of rum flavoring I used cinnaomon and instead of cutting the banana in a slice I cut it in vertically so the result was circular banana bites. I also used semi-ripe banana so I wouldn’t have to deal with the “smusshy” taste. All in all it was a great recipe
Love them!! Can’t stop eating them!
They were a huge hit. I didn’t have any vanilla powder and used cocoa powder instead for a chocolate taste and dipped them in a chocolate sauce and made a cream cheese compote for dipping as well. My two year had a blast!
I absolutely loved it. I added cinnamon instead of the vanilla powder. It was amazing. The exact amount of sugar for my taste. My mum n bro enjoyed it alot.
Living in Jakarta for a good amount of my childhood my family used to make these frequently. There is something a little ‘off’ about the recipe can’t really put my finger on it and we certainly didn’t use rum in ours but still good and reminded me of those days. For those of you whom have never had this, the best way to describe it….it is sorta like funnel cake with banana inside!
These weren’t bad but they definitely needed more sugar for my liking. Since a lot of the batter mix is left in the bottom of the bowl, the sugar probably didn’t really mix in well. Honey might have solved this issue since it’s a liquid. Also, I’d prefer it if they were a little crispier on the outside.
I’ve made this a few times and it has come out perfectly every time. Try dusting the bananas with powdered sugar for a nice presentation or drizzling with chocolate sauce. I add regular vanilla instead of powdered vanilla and often exclude the butter. If you want it to have a stronger rum taste add a little at the end. So easy and delicious!
Loved the recipe. My mother always made them with a beer batter (flour and beer) and it was SO easy. Try heating equal parts of soy sauce and honey in a small pot parts and add a bit of spicy ‘sambal’ for a dipping/serving sauce……. yummy!
The fritters tasted good and were all gone in minutes. The dough was tough to work with as bananas would not easily stay folded in the dough. After a while, I came up with a “folding” method using 2 spoons, but apparently, brought in too much dough per slice and ran out of the dough with almost 1 full banana left.
I made these for a potluck dinner with an Asian themed. They were eaten in a matter of minutes. Great recipe!
This is really good. Reminds me of home. You can also use cooking bananas (plaintain). Let them ripe first for 1 or 2 more weeks, until their skins turned black. By then, the taste will be sweet and the meat will be firm, not mushy like the regular banana. Yumm….
Well..I’ve tried it but nothing fanciable about this one. Just ordinary. The Pisang Goreng stalls can be found everyday (day and night!) throughout Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia…and I think there are more better recipes out there to be tested.
These are one of my favourite desserts and I have been looking for a recipe like this. Because bananas are fairly expensive where I am right now I made a half batch, then having enjoyed them so much, made another one. I pan fried them instead of deep frying and didn’t add any rum cause I don’t have any. To substitute I spiced them with nutmeg and cinnamon instead which is beautiful as a dessert, especially with vanilla ice-cream or maple syrup. For the second batch I added a little coarse ground pepper to the mix, which I know sounds strange but it tastes great and adds the perfect counterpoint to the sweetness of the dish. Try it!
Very good dessert that’s not too sweet. I didn’t deep fry mine because I don’t care for deep fried food. They are great plain old pan-fried! I even got a few picky friends to munch on them. Try it!
These were good-a litle plain and bland but we sprinkled powdered sugar on them and that made them better.A good recipe !
I made this tonight and they were really good. I have never had anything like this before. I did not have any vanilla powder so I used amaretto coffee creamer instead. Turned out great! Thanks for your recipe:)
Even with really ripe bananas, it still turned out really good. 🙂
Really good!! I didn’t have the vanilla powder or rum flavouring, but added cinnamon instead. Everybody loved these! Thanks for the recipe.
