This is a sweet little Samoan recipe which translates in Samoan Pancakes. With the banana you could almost convince yourself they are healthy :) Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups plain flour |
1 1/3 cups white sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
2 bananas, very ripe and mashed |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
1 1/2 cups water |
vegetable oil (for frying) |
Directions:
1. Combine the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a bowl until thoroughly mixed, and stir in the bananas, vanilla extract, and water to make a smooth, sticky dough.
2. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). The oil should be deep enough to completely cover the pani-kekes while frying, or at last 3 inches deep.
3. Scoop up a scant 1/4 cup of batter with a large spoon, and use another spoon to push it off into the oil. Fry in small batches of 4 or 5 until they float to the top and turn golden brown, about 3 minutes, then flip them to fry the other side. Remove from the fryer and let drain on paper towels.
