Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ripe but firm bananas (peeled and thinly sliced into rounds, about ⅛-inch thick)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or melted butter
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (or coconut sugar)
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Slice the Bananas
- Peel the bananas and slice them into thin, even rounds (about ⅛-inch thick).
- Coat with Cinnamon-Sugar
- In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon.
- Gently toss the banana slices with the coconut oil or melted butter, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over them.
- Preheat the Air Fryer
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 3–5 minutes.
- Air Fry
- Arrange the banana slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overlapping (work in batches if necessary).
- Air fry for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until chips are golden and crisp. Watch closely near the end to prevent burning.
- Cool & Serve
- Transfer banana chips to a wire rack to cool completely. They will become crisper as they cool.
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Notes
- Banana Ripeness: Choose bananas that are ripe but still firm to avoid overly soft chips.
- Sweetener Options: Coconut sugar offers a slightly healthier alternative with a hint of caramel flavor.
- Storage: Best enjoyed fresh but can be kept in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
