How to make?
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
10 tablespoons butter, chilled
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
5-6 tablespoons ice water
1 jar Nutella
2 medium bananas
1 quart vegetable oil
powdered sugar, for sprinkling
Directions
Using a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar, salt, butter, and cardamom until the dough pulls away from the sides of the mixer. Gradually add ice water one tablespoon at a time until dough comes together and can easily form a ball. Form into a 1/4-inch disc, cover in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Unwrap and roll out pie dough to 1/8-inch on a lightly floured surface. Using a 4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 10 to 12 pie circles, gathering and re-rollings scraps as necessary. Place 1 tablespoon of Nutella and 2-3 slices of banana in center of dough circles. Fold shut and seal by crimping the edges with a fork. Heat oil in heavy bottomed pot until temperature reaches 350 degrees F. Lower pies into oil using a slotted spoon in batches of 3 and cook until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve.
