Healthier Baked Banana Fritters l www.a-kitchen-addiction.com

Thanks for all the congratulations and well wishes! The move went off without a hitch. However, I managed to catch a whopper of a cold, and it doesn’t seem to be letting go anytime soon.

So, boxes are still packed and rooms have yet to be cleaned. And blog posts have yet to be posted. Sorry about that! Hopefully things will get back on track the rest of this week!

And what better way to get back on track than with some baked banana fritters! A healthier version of a fried favorite.

These baked banana fritters are super easy to whip up and can be warm from the oven on your plate in 30 minutes!

While I was packing up the kitchen for the move, I had two bananas sitting on the counter that really needed to be used up or they were going to end up in the trash. Obviously I couldn’t let that happen when this recipe was just waiting to be tried!

Lightened Up Baked Banana Fritters Recipe from A Kitchen Addiction

It didn’t take long before the kitchen smelled like banana bread, and I was dipping these fritters in a simple confectioner’s sugar glaze. I say in the instructions to allow the glaze to cool before serving.

Of course, I couldn’t wait, and it wasn’t long before I was digging into warm banana fritters covered with a gooey glaze!

If you find yourself slightly impatient, grab a glass of milk or mug of coffee and dig in. You won’t be disappointed either way!
