Description

Cinnamon-Sugar Air Fryer Banana Chips are a delightful and healthy snack that combines the natural sweetness of bananas with a hint of cinnamon. They’re easy to make and perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without any guilt.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 firm bananas (slightly underripe)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil or melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the Air Fryer:ย Set your air fryer to 300ยฐF (150ยฐC) and let it preheat for about 5 minutes.
  • Prepare the Bananas:ย Peel the bananas and slice them into โ…›-inch-thick rounds. Using a mandoline slicer can help achieve uniform slices, ensuring even cooking.
  • Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture:ย In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well mixed.
  • Coat the Banana Slices:ย Gently toss the banana slices with the melted coconut oil or butter, ensuring each piece is lightly coated. Then, sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the coated banana slices, tossing gently to ensure even coverage.
  • Arrange in the Air Fryer:ย Place the banana slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
  • Air Fry:ย Cook the banana slices for 15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Monitor closely to prevent burning.
  • Cool and Serve:ย Once golden brown and crisp, remove the banana chips from the air fryer and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.

Notes

  • Storage:ย Store the cooled banana chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To refresh their crispiness, you can reheat them in the air fryer at 300ยฐF for 2-3 minutes.
  • Variations:ย For a spiced flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg or pumpkin spice to the cinnamon-sugar mixture. If you prefer a savory twist, skip the sugar and sprinkle the banana slices with a bit of sea salt and paprika.
