🍌🤎 PLANTAIN PUFF PUFF (MOSA)

Ingredients:
2 ripe plantains
3 cups (375 g) all-purpose flour
¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
2¼ tsp (7 g) instant yeast
½ tsp salt
1½ cups (360 ml) warm water, approximately
½ tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Vegetable oil, for deep frying
Instructions:
Peel the plantains and mash or blend them until smooth.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, salt, and nutmeg.
Add the mashed plantains and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the warm water while mixing until you get a thick, stretchy, and slightly sticky batter.
Cover the bowl and let the batter rest in a warm place for 1–1½ hours, or until doubled in size and bubbly.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 170–175°C (340–350°F).
Scoop portions of the batter with your hand or a spoon and carefully drop them into the hot oil.
Fry in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4–6 minutes.
Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve warm and enjoy! 😍🍌
✨ Tip: Don’t overcrowd the pot while frying so the puff puff cooks evenly and stays beautifully golden.
