Where Can I Find a Banana Fritter Donut?
I was watching a food program on tv and they showed a wonderful donut shop somewhere across the country that served banana fritters. I have only seen apple fritters at donut shops-----does anybody know of a place where I can find banana fritters?

Confirmed at Venice Whole Foods! Got one today, they had at least 5 more left at the time.
It was pretty good. There weren't very many actual banana pieces in it, but the few in it were awesomely caramelized and chewy, and the rest of the fritter had an infusion of banana flavor in the sticky glaze. It's too bad more donut places don't make this, because the donut part itself was obviously not as great as at a regular donut place. (It's just Whole Foods after all.) But overall, it was a nice find. Thanks cookie monster.

Frittelli's in BH advertises a banana fritter donut. No idea if it's good or what it looks like though.

re: Emme
Thanks for the suggestions, but I was looking for something not Asian-style (which are more like banana slices fried tempura-style and served with chocolate or other sauces). What I saw on the Tv food episode looked just like the big apple fritters that are found in donut shops---except they were made using pieces of bananas.

re: HBfoodie
Sorry about that.
I was at Trader Vic's on Friday night, and they have Banana Fritters with Rum Syrup on their menu... not sure if they're what you're after either.
You might call Donut Man in Glendora, and see if just maybe they'd consider doing a specialty donut for you... or at the very least, if you brought in your own bananas, if they'd consider battering them in their batter and frying them :-)
