Bananas?????

I was bored and decided to try this at home one day. I had no idea if it would turn okay or not but once I finished it, my daughter loved it. She is still bugging me to make this again. I guess that you could call these fried banana empanadas. Anyway, whatever you want to call them, here is the recipe.

Fried Banana Empanadas

Ingredients:

Bananas, peeled and sliced in half
Brown sugar
Cinnamon
Package of egg roll wrappers
Oil for frying or deep fryer

Method:

  1. Take the banana halves and slice each half into thirds.
  2. Take an egg roll wrapper and place it on your work surface.
  3. Roll a section of banana in the brown sugar and place in the center of the wrapper
  4. Sprinkle with cinnamon
  5. Fold ends of wrapper over banana and then roll the wrapper up to enclose the banana. Dip your finger in water and brush the edge of the wrapper to seal it.
  6. When you have your empanadas completed, fry to a crisp golden brown.
These are best served warm while the bananas are hot but the sugar has had time to cool. My daughter even ate them the next day and said they were delicious.
