Main ingredients
  • 2 large ripe bananas Make sure bananas are ripe but not overripe.
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Adds warmth and spice.
  • 2 tablespoons sugar Just a sprinkle, enough to create a delicious crunch.
  • as needed sprays cooking spray For that perfect golden crisp without adding excess oil.

Preparation
  1. Peel your ripe bananas and slice them thinly (about 1/8 inch thick) for maximum crispiness.
  2. In a bowl, toss the banana slices with a light coating of cinnamon and sugar until adequately coated.
Cooking
  1. Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place the banana slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding.
  3. Air fry for about 10-15 minutes, checking halfway through and shaking the basket to ensure even cooking.
  4. Once golden and crisp, remove the banana chips and allow them to cool on a wire rack to maintain their crunch.

Notes

For a healthier twist, use coconut sugar instead of regular sugar. Add a sprinkle of cayenne pepper for a sweet-spicy twist. Drizzle with maple syrup before serving for enhanced sweetness.
