1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
powdered sugar, for sprinkling

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Vegetable oil, for frying
8 slices bacon (not thick-cut)
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
4 bananas, peeled and halved crosswise
1 1/4 cups cake flour, plus more for dredging
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Pinch kosher salt
1 cup very cold seltzer
Honey, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Heat 2 inches vegetable oil to 370 degrees F in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until the fat is rendered but the bacon is still pliable (don't get it too crisp), 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Let cool.
  • Spread one side of each bacon slice with peanut butter. Wrap each slice around a banana piece, peanut butter-side facing the banana, pressing to adhere.
  • Spread some cake flour in a shallow bowl for dredging. Whisk the cake flour, confectioners' sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in the seltzer, taking care not to overmix (a few small lumps are fine).
  • Dredge half of the bananas in the flour, then dip in the batter and carefully add to the hot oil. Fry in 2 batches until crisp and golden brown, flipping halfway through, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining bananas. Insert skewers into the bananas. Drizzle with honey and serve immediately.

GRANOLA BANANA STICKS



Granola Banana Sticks image

My daughter and I won an award at our local fair for these peanut-butter-and-granola bananas. I like to assemble the ingredients ahead for my kids to whip up when they get home from school. Sometimes we substitute rice cereal as a crunchy alternative to the granola bars. -Diane Toomey, Allentown, Pennsylvania
