Instructions

Bananas Foster Dipping Sauce

Step 1

MAKE THE SAUCE FIRST! Because you don't want your fried bananas to sit too long.

Step 2

In a medium pan, melt butter, brown sugar, corn syrup (or honey) and rum on stove over medium heat. Cook and stir constantly until sugar is completely dissolved. About 5-10 minutes; once it begins to bubble.

Step 3

Once sugar is dissolved, REMOVE from heat and add vanilla and cinnamon. Pour into a serving dish and set aside.

Step 4

Heat the oil in a medium sized saucepan to about 350° (You may need to adjust heat slightly as you cook)

Step 5

While ALLOWING OIL TO HEAT. Move on to next step.

Step 6

Mix the panko crumbs (or unseasoned breadcrumbs), brown sugar and cinnamon together in a medium bowl.

Step 7

Dip banana pieces in the scrambled egg to moisten then dip in corn flake mixture to coat. Place on a clean tray and set aside.

Step 8

BEFORE you begin to fry your bananas have a large cookie sheet with a large cooling rack READY! You will want to place your fried bananas on the rack to cool. (It will keep them more crisp than if you let them drain on a paper towel.)

Step 9

Place a few bananas in the heated oil at a time. Don't overcrowd them. Let it cook for about 20-30 seconds on one side then flip and cook on the other side for the same amount of time or until they begin to brown. Keep a close eye on them so they don't burn.

Step 10

Use a slotted spoon to remove them to your cooling rack. Continue to cook all of your bananas. Serve immediately as they will begin to get less crispy as they sit.
