About the Ingredients for Easy Fried Banana Bites
Bananas – You want to use just ripe bananas or even slightly green bananas. Over-ripe bananas will get mushy and hard to work with.
Pancake mix – Use the type of pancake mix that requires the addition of eggs and milk. Avoid using the “just add water!” type of mix.
Milk – Use any type of milk that you prefer. Room temperature milk is best as it will help the batter come together better.
Eggs – Use room temperature eggs for the best results.
Powdered sugar – For dusting.
Oil – Vegetable oil or any other neutral flavoured oil with a high smoke point.
Vanilla – For a little extra sweetness to the batter you can add in a splash of vanilla extract.
