Ingredients
For the Dough:
Wheat flour: 210g (1 3/4 cups)
Sugar: 15g (1 tablespoon)
Organic dry yeast: 5g (1/2 packet)
Egg: 1 large
Oil: 39ml (3 tablespoons)
Warm milk: 80ml (1/3 cup)
Salt: A pinch
Bananas: 7 to 10 units (firm and not overly ripe)
For Frying:
Oil: As needed for frying
For the Coating:
Sugar: 135g (3/4 cup)
Cinnamon powder: To taste
Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Activate the Yeast:
In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and dry yeast. Allow it to sit for 5-10 minutes, or until the yeast becomes frothy. This ensures the yeast is activated and will help the dough rise.
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the wheat flour, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Add Wet Ingredients:
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the egg, oil, and yeast mixture. Stir everything together until a soft dough forms.
Knead the Dough:
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. If it feels too sticky, add a little more flour, but be careful not to overdo it.
Let the Dough Rise:
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
