Binoilos

Ingrediments:
All purpose flour
Sugar
Bananas
coconut oil

Directions:
First take your stove and cover all the non used burners since this will make a mess and you will spend hours cleaning your stove.


Pre-heat your coconut oil in a large frying pan or wok.
Next put about 2 cups flour into a mixing bowl,
add 3 serving spoons of sugar (not tsp or tbl spoons - military size serving spoon)
dry mix it all together.
For this size order, cut up 2 long bananas and stir inside
Add water to make a very thick paste and stir it all together.
Now put the batter into the heated coconut oil (set on high) and fry it all up.
Personally, I like them cooked on the medium dark side, but not too crunchy. Wifey likes them cooked till they're crispy uneatable, dark & crunchy. I cook them till they look like this when you're pau.



This will make about 15 binoilos. Each person usually eats 3-4 each.
