Ingredients
- 4 pieces ripe bananas
- 8 pieces spring roll wrappers
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 piece egg white
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Peel the bananas and cut each banana in half lengthwise, then cut each piece in half crosswise, resulting in four pieces per banana.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon powder and vanilla extract. Brush this mixture lightly over the banana pieces.
Step 3
Sprinkle a small amount of unsweetened coconut flakes over each banana piece for added flavor and texture.
Step 4
Place a piece of banana diagonally on a spring roll wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the banana, fold in the sides, and roll upwards until completely sealed. Use a dab of egg white on the final corner to seal the wrapper.
Step 5
Repeat the wrapping process for all banana pieces.
Step 6
In a frying pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot enough (around 350°F or 175°C) before frying.
Step 7
Carefully place the banana turon into the hot oil, seam side down, frying a few at a time until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the turon from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the sugar-free banana turon warm as a delicious and naturally sweet dessert.
