Banana fritters are a tasty and sweet way to start the day. Ripe bananas add sweetness on their own, and when you add maple syrup or honey, they become impossible to resist.

Ingredients: 2 ripe bananas, mashed. 1 cup all-purpose flour. 1/4 cup sugar. 1/2 tsp baking powder. 1/4 tsp salt. 1/2 cup milk. 1 egg. 1 tsp vanilla extract. Vegetable oil for frying. Maple syrup or honey for serving.

Instructions: Put the mashed bananas, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. The milk, egg, and vanilla extract should all be mixed together in a different bowl.
