- Turn on your deep fryer or fill a wok with oil then bring up to heat. (A match head thrown in the wok will catch fire when oil has reached perfect temp for frying).
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar and salt. Stir in the egg, milk, oil and vanilla. Beat until smooth. (If too thick, slowly add more milk).
- Wrap the whole peeled bananas in the cooked bacon (or don't) then pin on with wooden toothpicks. Dip bananas into the batter then carefully place them in the hot oil.
- Fry until golden brown and bananas float to the top, about 7 minutes. Remove toothpicks then serve.
