Fried banana doughnut holes are sweet treats made with a quick, yeast-free dough based on mashed bananas. Mash the bananas with a fork, mix with sugar and vanilla, then add flour mixed with baking powder. The dough must be thick enough to hold its round shape in the oil. The doughnut holes are crisp on the outside and tender inside; dust them with sugar before serving.

Ingredients

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Mash the bananas with a fork in a large bowl. Add the sugar and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
Mix the measured flour with the baking powder and a pinch of salt.
Add the dry mixture to the bananas and mix into a thick, soft dough. It must be thick enough to hold its round shape in the oil. If it is too thin, add a little more flour.
Carefully drop portions of dough into hot oil, preferably using an ice cream scoop or a spoon. Fry no more than 10 pieces at a time so the oil does not cool down too much.
Gently stir the doughnut holes to keep them from sticking to the bottom, and fry until nicely browned.
Transfer the cooked doughnut holes to a paper towel to drain. Let cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar.

Tip: Fill the ice cream scoop only halfway so the smaller doughnut holes cook evenly all the way through. Release the dough just above the surface of the oil to prevent splashing.
