I was craving apple fritters but wasn't able to get to the donut shop. So I looked around to find on hand ingredients to satisfy my craving. I didn't have apples, but I had some very nice ripe bananas. That's when I came up with these. You won't be disappointed. They look kind of ugly at first, but taste delicious! I'll never go back to a donut shop for fritters again. (I tried left over pineapple and grated apple too, they were also good.)
