Place oil into a deep sauce pot. Heat to 350 degrees F. Check with digital thermometer or candy thermometer.

In a bowl, mix pancake batter with the required amount of water per package. I use buttermilk and I like to add a little more water to the bowl so it's not so thick just enough to coat the banana slice. If it's too thick it will not fry well and cook too long.

Slice banana into round bite size pieces. Dip in pancake batter and fry until the outsides are golden brown. After 3 to 5 minutes.

Strain with spider and toss into a bowl with cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve warm!
