Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute the beaten egg with a vegan alternative?
Yes, you can use a mixture of ground flaxseed and water (1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 2.5 tablespoons of water) as a vegan egg substitute. Alternatively, you can use unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana.
How should I store leftover fried bananas?
For best results, store any leftover fried bananas in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be reheated in an oven or air fryer to restore some crispiness.
What can I do if the breading isn’t sticking to the bananas?
If the breading isn’t sticking, try patting the bananas dry with a paper towel before dipping them into the beaten egg. Also, ensure that the oil is hot enough before frying, as this helps the breading adhere better.
