Banana & Caramel Fritters
I know you love fritters, so here’s a Banana Caramel Fritters recipe for you in partnership with Bonne Maman featuring their Caramel Sauce and some overripe bananas as the base of the batter. Aside from banana bread and pancakes, this recipe uses up your overripe bananas and whips them into something delicious in 10 minutes. I’ve used Bonne Maman's Caramel Sauce in the batter to make it sweeter ad richer but I’ve also served it alongside the fritters to dip into. You could eat these on their own, but dipping them in some rich caramel sauce definitely takes them to another level. Also these could go really well with some vanilla ice cream too if you wanted something cold to go with them.
