Cook this recipe

  • ripe bananas-4 each
  • egg roll wrappers-12 wrapper
  • vegetable oil-1 cup
  • light brown sugar-1/2 cup
  • granulated sugar-1/4 cup
  • water-2 tablespoons
  • cornstarch-1 tablespoon
  • ground cinnamon-1 1/2 teaspoons
  • fine salt-1/4 teaspoon
1
Mix cinnamon sugar and sealing paste
2 small bowls

Mix the cinnamon sugar by combining the granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and fine salt in a small bowl; make the sealing paste by stirring the cornstarch and water in a second small bowl until smooth.

1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons Water
2
Prepare bananas and filling sugar
Knife
Cutting Board
Shallow dish

Peel the bananas and cut each one lengthwise into 3 even spears; in a shallow dish, combine the brown sugar with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.

Keep fingers curled back and the knife blade angled away while cutting the bananas.

4 Each banana
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
3
Coat the banana spears
Shallow dish

Coat each banana spear lightly in the brown sugar mixture, pressing gently so it sticks without clumping; keep any extra brown sugar mixture nearby for filling.

4 Each banana
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
4
Start wrapping each turon

Place 1 egg roll wrapper on the counter in a diamond shape; set 1 banana spear across the lower third, sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon of the brown sugar mixture, then fold the bottom point over the banana.

12 Count egg roll wrappers
4 Each banana
1/2 cup brown sugar
5
Seal the wrappers
2 small bowls

Fold in both side corners tightly, roll the turon almost closed, brush the top point with cornstarch paste, then seal the wrapper firmly; repeat with the remaining wrappers and bananas.

12 Count egg roll wrappers
4 Each banana
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons Water
6
Heat the oil
12-inch skillet

Heat the oil to about 350°F over medium heat, using a frying thermometer. Use the 12-inch skillet, keep oil below smoking and adjust heat between batches.

Keep the oil at a steady medium heat and do not let it smoke.

1 cup vegetable oil
7
Fry until crisp
Tongs
12-inch skillet

Fry uncrowded batches until deep golden and crisp, about 2–3 minutes per side. Start seam-side down and let the oil return to about 350°F before each batch.

Lay each turon into the skillet away from you to reduce oil splatter.

Do not overcrowd the skillet, since crowded frying can make the wrappers greasy and increase splattering.

12 Count egg roll wrappers
4 Each banana
1 cup vegetable oil
8
Drain and finish with cinnamon sugar
Tongs
Paper towels
Wire rack

Transfer the fried turon to a wire rack lined with paper towels; while still hot, sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar so it lightly sticks to the crisp wrappers.

12 Count egg roll wrappers
4 Each banana
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
9
Cool briefly and serve
Wire rack

Let the turon cool for 3 to 5 minutes before serving warm, when the wrappers are crisp and the banana filling is soft and caramel-like.

Let the filling cool briefly before eating because hot banana and sugar can burn.
