Ingredients

  • 2 units Green bananas
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 0.25 cup Coconut flour
  • 2 units Eggs
  • 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons Erythritol sweetener
  • 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Coconut oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by peeling the green bananas and cutting them into diagonal slices, about 1/4 inch thick, to ensure they cook evenly.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, ground cinnamon, erythritol sweetener, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the unsweetened almond milk until you get a smooth and consistent mixture.

Step 4

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick batter forms. The batter should be thick enough to coat the banana slices well.

Step 5

Heat coconut oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 1/2 inch deep in the pan.

Step 6

Once the oil is hot enough (approximately 350°F or 175°C), dip each banana slice into the batter, ensuring it is thoroughly coated, and gently place it in the pan.

Step 7

Fry the banana slices in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook each slice for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they become golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the fried banana slices from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve immediately, and enjoy your low-carb crispy fried bananas as a delicious and guilt-free treat.
