sugar

Honey is a natural sweetener, while brown sugar is often less expensive.

Almond milk is lower in calories, while water can be used to adjust batter consistency.

Mash the ripe bananas in a large bowl using a fork until they have some texture.

Add 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder, and 2 tablespoons corn starch to the mashed bananas and mix well.

Add enough milk (about 20 ml) to form a thick batter, ensuring some small pieces of banana remain for texture.

Optionally, mix in 2-3 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder, and set aside for later.

Preheat oil in a deep skillet on medium flame.

Use two tablespoons to spoon the mixture into the hot oil, ensuring even-sized fritters.

Deep fry the fritters on medium flame, gently turning them when the color changes to achieve even coloring.

Fry until they turn a nice golden brown color and have a crispy outer layer with a soft and fluffy middle.

Remove the fritters and place them on tissue paper to absorb excess oil.

Serve immediately, optionally sprinkling with cinnamon sugar.
