Ingredients

Servings 6

1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, divided
2/3 cup coconut flour*
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Vegetable oil for frying
12 very ripe baby (aka burro) bananas, 8 red bananas, or 6 regular bananas
Coconut ice cream
1 tablespoon toasted white sesame seeds

Instructions

Whisk 2/3 cup all-purpose flour, the coconut flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a bowl. Slowly whisk in 2 cups water until smooth. Batter should look like thick pancake batter; if it's too thick, whisk in water, 1 to 2 tbsp. at a time. Let rest at least 20 minutes and up to 40.
Meanwhile, pour oil into a large pot to come 3 in. up sides. Insert a deep-fry thermometer and heat to 350 ° over medium-high heat (15 to 20 minutes).
Slice baby or red bananas in half lengthwise. If using regular bananas, slice in half crosswise, on the diagonal. Put remaining 2/3 cup all-purpose flour in a bowl and dip bananas to coat thinly. Set a cooling rack on a baking sheet.
Dredge a few banana pieces in batter and carefully drop into oil. Boost heat to maintain an even 350 °. Fry bananas until deep golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes; then lift with a slotted spoon to rack. Scoop out and discard bits of fried batter in oil. Repeat with remaining bananas and batter, returning oil to 350 ° between batches.
Put 2 to 3 banana pieces in each bowl. Top with a scoop of ice cream and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.
