Instructions
- Peel the bananas and cut them into thin slices.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the ice-cold water to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (180°C).
- Dip the banana slices into the batter, coating them completely.
- Carefully place the battered banana slices into the hot oil, frying in batches for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the tempura bananas from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve the tempura bananas warm, drizzled with honey or sprinkled with powdered sugar.
- Enjoy!
