This is a very good dessert pizza and my kids especially enjoy it when I make this. Follow the steps below to make this recipe.

dessert pizza — We like to use plain nan bread for these.
Take the Nan bread and top with Nutella. Add sliced Bananas, coconut & white chocolate chips on top. Of course, the toppings on these are endless so you can put what you want. I shove these in the oven under the broiler for just a minute. This melts the chocolate and toasts the coconut. Now just slice up the dessert pizza, serve and enjoy!

Banana Fritters » RecipeCollage.com » November 23, 2024 — I’ve done deep fried bananas a lot of different ways! This is our favorite. These really are terrific, when your feeling like giving yourself a little treat, you should try it out.
We prefer to use the baby bananas cause they are so sweet and well just delicious. And you can’t beat that nice yellow color right?! Large Bananas work fine though.
You really need a silicone mold for this. I just love this Epicure silicone mold, I use it for a variety of things.
These are great with just the banana in them. But we like to do a couple different flavors.
Smooched Bananas I did 15 small put into my 1 1/2TBSP serving silicone mold.

Just a little bit on top mix that in too with wooden stick. Now this has to go in freezer and get frozen! Well that freezes you can work on your batter.

Banana Fritters » RecipeCollage.com » November 23, 2024 — I find the the bananas thaw fast so I only take a few out at a time. Take out of silicone. With remainder of flour give them all a roll through flour, lightly shake off excess flour, dunk in batter. I use a fork for this, to remove from batter and place in 375F oil deep fry 3-5 minutes. Flipping til sides are all golden brown. Lay out on paper towel to remove excess oil.

Pina Colada & Red Velvet dehydrated Bananas » RecipeCollage.com » November 23, 2024 — We love to dehydrate. Ive only owned one for about 3 years, it’s ran nearly everyday since we purchased it! We dehydrate just about everything there almost no waste in this family.
Sometimes it’s fun, doing new things like this recipe. Wow, were these enjoyed. My dehydrator has been my funniest kitchen tool yet.
What do we got here?
About 2 banana in each container. Bananas cut in half then those pieces thinly sliced.
Placed 2 whole sliced bananas in each container. One we pour over a Pina Colada Mix and the Other a Red Velvet Syrup. Soak for atleast 3-6hours.
I used Dehydrating sheets as syrups were a tad sticky. When removing bananas from container try and remove as much excess syrup as possible.

Pina Colada & Red Velvet dehydrated Bananas » RecipeCollage.com » November 23, 2024 — Dehydrate at 145F about 8-10hours, I flip half way threw

Pina Colada & Red Velvet dehydrated Bananas » RecipeCollage.com » November 23, 2024 — Dehydrators will vary in time. Take trays out, let sit for 10-15minutes. Peel from dehydrating sheet. They should be pretty crunchy and not sticky anymore!
Just like everything we Dehydrate they didnt last long!

Love our dehydrator. It’s half the price to the leading brands. But works just as great!

1/3CUP white sugar
1 1/2TSP salt
1TSP vanilla extract
3 beaten eggs
1/3CUP vegetable oil
5 cups whole-wheat flour, divided
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
2CUPS white sugar
1/2TSP ground cinnamon, or to taste

Mix warm water, yeast, pinch of sugar in a large bowl, and let stand until the yeast begins to foam, about 5 minutes. Stir in milk, 1/3 cup sugar, salt, vanilla extract, eggs, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil until the sugar has dissolved. Mix in about half the whole-wheat flour, and stir until the dough is too stiff to add more flour. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Form the dough into a ball, place into an oiled bowl, and cover. Let rise until the dough has doubled in size.

Beaver Tails (or pigs ears) » RecipeCollage.com » November 23, 2024 — Punch down the dough, and pinch off a piece of dough about the size of an egg. Roll the dough ball out into an oval shape about 1/4 inch thick. This is a great way to get kids involved. They love it. Place finished dough on a cloth and cover while you finish rolling out the pastries.
