Here’s how to make these gorgeous Salted Caramel Banana Balls
Ingredients:
- 200g self-raising flour
- 1tsp baking powder
- 1tsp salt
- 2 overripe bananas, mashed
- 2 eggs
- 200ml yogurt
- sunflower oil for frying (the quantity depends on the dish you use for frying)
For the Salted Caramel Sauce:
- 100g caster sugar
- 1tbs coarse sea salt
Preparation:
- In a bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. In a separate bow, whisk the egg with yogurt and add the mashed bananas. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well to a smooth and runny (but not too much) consistency.
- Heat a pot, deep enough with the oil, should be enough so it covers the balls. Use a spoon and when the oil is really hot, add it gently in. It’ll puff up instantly, which is the aim. Turn it around gently, be very careful with the hot oil. It should take no more than 3-4 minutes for them to fry. Repeat with the rest of them until they’re nice and golden.
- To prepare the salted caramel sauce, simply heat the sugar and sea salt, make sure not to stir until it’s all melted. Once it’s done use a wooden spoon to stir. Pour over the hot banana balls and serve!
Enjoy!
