Ingredients
- Banana Bomb
-
1 cup
Self Raising Flour
-
1/2 cup
Plain Flour
-
1 cup
Cold Beer
-
2 tablespoons
Sugar
-
2
Bananas
-
1/2 liter
Oil for deep frying
-
2 tablespoons
Icing Sugar
- Toffee Sauce
-
100 grams
Butter
-
5 tablespoons
Brown Sugar
-
2 tablespoons
Thickened Cream
Directions
- Banana Bomb
-
Slice bananas into 1 cm slices and set aside.
-
Sieve flour into mixing bowl, add sugar and cold beer. Gently mix until well combined.
-
Heat oil in saucepan on medium heat. Drop a teaspoon of batter into oil. If it floats to the top, oil is ready for cooking.
-
Using a skewer or fork, prick banana slice and dip into batter until banana well coated. Gently drop coated banana into oil, removing skewer / fork. Once batter is golden, flip over to cook on other side (about a minute on each side). Cook a few Banana Bombs at a time, however, don't over crowd saucepan.
-
Once banana bomb is golden on both sides, remove from oil with slotted spoon and place on paper towel to absorb any residual oil.
-
Sprinkle with icing sugar.
- Toffee Sauce
-
Place butter and sugar in saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly until melted. Take off heat and stir in cream.
-
Serve Banana Bombs warm with ice cream topped with warm Toffee Sauce.
