Banana Croquettes


This is considered a salad in most Kentucky homes.

Ingredients:


4 or 5 firm bananas (not overly ripe) peeled and sliced lengthwise, then cut in half. You can cut them in chunks as well to make bite-sized pieces
2 eggs
3 tablespoons white vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
4 tablespoons milk or cream (I use evaporated milk)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 cups crushed peanuts


Directions:

Whisk together eggs, vinegar, sugar, milk and cornstarch. Cook on top of the stove until thickens. Let dressing cool. Dip banana pieces in cooked dressing or coat with a brush and sprinkle or roll in the peanuts. Serve on a bed of lettuce.

Note


Some people use regular mayonnaise or miracle whip and then roll the banana pieces in peanuts. I like the cooked dressing. You can also add peanut butter to the dressing and then roll in nuts or coconut. Some people use corn flakes instead of the nuts. They are good however you “fix” them, I put my peanuts in a plastic bag and crush with the rolling pin
