Deep-Fried Delicacies from the State Fair of Texas

Bourbon Banana Caramel Sopapillas 

The brainchild of Cody and Lauren Hays, these decadent sopapillas—winner of the 2023 “Most Creative” honors—are topped with vanilla-caramel-infused bananas, sweet bourbon syrup, crushed candied pecans, sweetened mascarpone cheese, and crumbled Nilla Wafers.
