STRAWBERRY-BANANA FRITTERS

Strawberry-Banana Fritters image

My grandmother made these crispy, fruity treats with apples, and my mother with sweet corn. When I didn't have either on hand, I substituted bananas and strawberries. Serve dusted with confectioners' sugar.

½ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
⅓ cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 bananas, chopped

Steps:

Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.
Whisk eggs and confectioners' sugar together in a large bowl. Add milk, 1 teaspoon oil, and vanilla extract; mix well to combine. Add flour mixture; stir until just combined. Gently fold bananas and strawberries into batter.
