For Fritters: Preheat deep fat to 375 degrees F. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, sugar and salt.

In a separate bowl, combine the egg, milk, butter and baking powder. Stir into the dry ingredients.

Dip banana halves into the batter and drop into the hot deep fat. Fry until golden brown. Serve with vanilla ice cream and Cinnamon Sauce (below).

For Cinnamon Sauce: Heat water and cinnamon in a medium saucepan.

In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolks with sugar and cornstarch. Add about one-third of the hot mixture to the egg yolk mixture slowly, then pour back into the saucepan, stirring to blend.

Return sauce to a boil. Remove from heat and cool the sauce for 2 minutes. Slowly whisk or beat in the butter.

Store cinnamon sauce in refrigerator.
