Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 bananas
- 5 slices of bread
- 1 egg
Binding/Liquid Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) milk
Seasoning and Cooking Ingredients:
- Sugar (to taste)
- Butter (for frying)
Instructions
- Delicately peel ripe bananas, ensuring smooth, intact surfaces for optimal rolling.
- Gently press bread slices with a rolling pin until uniformly thin and pliable.
- Position a whole banana at one edge of each flattened bread slice, then meticulously roll into compact cylindrical shapes.
- Create a smooth egg-milk mixture in a wide, shallow container by whisking until fully integrated.
- Warm a skillet over medium heat, adding a generous pat of butter to prevent sticking.
- Carefully submerge each banana-filled roll into the egg mixture, rotating to achieve complete, even coating.
- Gently transfer coated rolls into the heated skillet, rotating periodically to ensure uniform golden-brown coloration on all exterior surfaces.
- While rolls remain warm from cooking, liberally dust with granulated sugar, allowing it to slightly caramelize and create a delicate sweet crust.
- Remove from heat and let rest momentarily to allow internal temperature to stabilize before serving.
Notes
- Use ripe, soft bananas for easier rolling and better flavor sweetness.
- Flatten bread slices gently to prevent tearing, creating a thin even surface for wrapping.
- Secure rolls with toothpicks if they unravel during cooking to maintain their shape.
- Experiment with different bread types like whole wheat or brioche for varied textures and nutritional profiles.
