Kitchen Equipment Needed

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot
  • Slotted spoon
  • Tongs
  • Paper towels

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Batter

In a bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, mashed banana, milk, egg, vanilla, and cinnamon. The batter should be smooth but thick enough to coat the Oreos.

Step 2: Heat the Oil

In a deep fryer or large pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the Oreos fry up perfectly crispy without absorbing too much oil.

Step 3: Coat the Oreos

Dip each Oreo into the banana batter, letting any excess drip off before placing it in the hot oil.

Step 4: Fry to Perfection

Carefully place each coated Oreo into the oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and place them on a paper towel to drain.

Step 5: Garnish & Serve

Dust with powdered sugar and drizzle with chocolate sauce for extra yumminess. Serve warm and enjoy watching your kids’ happy faces! 😊


Mom’s Tips for the Best Banana Deep Fried Oreos

  • Use ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pot; fry in small batches to keep the oil temperature steady.
  • Let any extra batter drip off before frying to avoid clumps.

Recipe Variations and Kid-Friendly Swaps

  • Vegan Version: Swap the egg for applesauce and use plant-based milk.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use a gluten-free pancake mix.
  • Nutty Twist: Stir in a tablespoon of peanut butter into the batter for an extra treat.

How to Store and Reheat Leftovers

  • Storage: If you somehow have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Reheating: Warm them in the air fryer or oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes to bring back their crispiness.

What to Serve with Banana Deep Fried Oreos

  • Ice Cream: Vanilla or chocolate ice cream makes the perfect pairing.
  • Whipped Cream: A little homemade whipped cream makes these even more indulgent.
  • Milkshakes: A cold vanilla or banana milkshake takes this dessert to the next level!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Fried Oreos

1. Can I make these without a deep fryer?
Yes! A heavy-bottomed pot with hot oil works just as well. Just be sure to maintain the right temperature.

2. Can I prepare the batter ahead of time?
It’s best to use the batter fresh, but if you’re in a rush, you can refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before using.

3. Can I bake these instead of frying?
Frying gives the best crispy texture, but you can bake them at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes.

4. Are deep-fried Oreos good cold?
They’re best enjoyed fresh and warm, but they can be reheated for a crispy texture.

5. Can I use frozen Oreos?
Yes! Freezing the Oreos before battering helps them hold their shape better while frying.
