There’s a certain magic to recipes that have been passed down through generations, and Baked Banana Fritters are one of those treasures. These fritters take me back to my grandmother’s kitchen, where every bite was a warm hug on a cold Midwestern morning. Unlike the traditional fried version, these are baked, making them a bit lighter but just as delightful. They’re perfect for using up those overripe bananas and filling your home with a nostalgic aroma.
Serve these Baked Banana Fritters warm, straight from the oven, with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of maple syrup. They pair wonderfully with a side of crispy bacon or sausage links, adding a savory contrast to the sweet fritters. If you’re in the mood for something simpler, a dollop of vanilla yogurt or a handful of fresh berries makes for a delightful accompaniment.
