Ingredients

  • 4 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup rice flour
  • 0.5 cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel the ripe bananas and cut them into 1/2 inch slices.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, cornstarch, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Gradually add the coconut milk into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until you have a smooth batter.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. The oil is ready when a small drop of batter fries to a golden brown in about 15 seconds.

Step 5

Dip each banana slice into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 6

Carefully place the coated banana slices into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches if necessary.

Step 7

Fry the bananas for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried bananas from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 9

Serve immediately for the crispiest texture. Enjoy your gluten-free crispy fried bananas paired with ice cream, drizzled with honey, or simply on their own.
