Thanks so much from Kingston, Jamaica...nice and simple. I just made these for breakfast for my twin and I...delicious ☺ I won't ever have to throw away over-ripe bananas again.
Hi Ingrid, glad you like the recipe. Here is another recipe for banana fritters you might want to try: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PuxuTZLIjmQ.html Now I'm dreaming of escovitch fish and jerk chicken! I've visited Negril and hope to visit Kingston in the future :)
Made the fritters. They were so nice I ate them all! Added a teaspoon of baking powder and they came out lighter. Also added nutmeg and mixed spice. Thanks for the recipe.
For the person who said that it is a Jamaican recipe. Banana fritters are not only Jamaican. All of the Caribbean and most of the Latin American countries and some parts of America especially the south make banana fritters and banana bread and, of course, the Caribbean diaspora.
It's not. As someone else said, people all over the Caribbean make them. I'm from the Caribbean and was surprised people were calling them "Jamaican" on RU-vid.
NO! IT’S NOT! We make these in St Vincent, and Barbados all the time and in other islands too! Every food enjoyed is NOT Jamaican so you all need to stop trying to monopolize food.
@1topgorgon This is not a Jamaican recipe or is it an original Jamaican recipe. It is a Trinidadian recipe and as a matter of fact the Caribbean Diaspora all of the Caribbean People and Latin America also make this recipe. Do your research @1topgorgon your ignorance is very unpalatable.
I just want to say I love your recipe. I used all purpose gluten free flour and that use coconut oil instead of vegetable oil and all I have to say OMG this is amazing also I glazed some honey over it for a wonderful finish.
Followed your recipe for half tha amount.it was excellent. Thanks Anita. My mother used to make this exact ingredients and she is 94 years old and she says that this is a favorite item for many generations...Thanks
I have watched 15 or so of these banana fritter tutorials and they are all so complicated compared to my familys. We just mash bananas and add about 2 tablespoon of flour and if they aren't really rip bananas then a tablespoon of sugar and fry them in margarine. Always use margarine it makes it taste so much better with the salty taste of it. That's it. We don't add any of the other things.
I think that’s kind of how my grandmother used to do them, too, except right when they were done & still hot, she sprinkled some sugar on top which would get crunchy - yum ! We loved these so much - I never got an exact recipe from her, but I know she did not use any sugar in the batter
I’ve tried it just now and it turns out so delicious! Thanks for your simple yet yummy recipe! I’m pretty sure make it again. Greetings from Belgium!🇧🇪 😋😍
I suddenly thought of mum's quick tea time snack when plantains were overripe. I think she added an egg. Anyhow, I am definitely going to revive my childhood tea time snack. Ours lioked like dollops and yellow in colour.
About 6-7 years ago I stumbled on this video as I was now on my own for school in Jamaica and had to learn to do everything myself. To this day I still come back to this video when I want a refresher. It's short and to the point to give you the results you're looking for.
The best banana fritters recipe so far. I added a little nutmeg. I think if you are using nutmeg, you should use very little and use a little less cinnamon.
Great recipe! Followed it and it was delicious! Question for you...can I do this same recipe, but instead of frying, can I put them in the oven and bake them?
Oh my God im soooo happy i i found this recipe, it bring me back when i was little my mom use to make these for us ,in Belize we valled it daddy old man ears, i miss my mom so much. thank you God bless you 🌷
Ha Ha you don't have waste if you don't buy so many. you could try making without the sugar :) and almond flower to avoid the gluten. Thanks nice DO NOT USE VEGETABLE OIL not healthy, butter ok
When bananas look like these, we cut each into 3 pieces but in lag ziplock bag freeze for my vanilla protein shake. Just put in bowl run warm water over it. After 2 mins squeeze skin right off. Throw banana chunk in blender yummy. Add a teaspoon of sugar for a sweeter shake. I also add frozen blueberries & spinach 😋
