Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 medium ripe bananas Firm, yellow with minimal spotting
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • to taste Cooking spray (optional) For easy cleanup

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Peel the bananas and slice them into uniform thin rounds—about 1/8 inch thick is ideal.
  2. Preheat your air fryer to 330°F (165°C) and lightly spray the basket with cooking spray or line it with perforated parchment.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the coconut or brown sugar with the cinnamon and set aside.
  4. Place the banana slices in a mixing bowl and gently toss with the cinnamon-sugar mixture until lightly coated.
Cooking
  1. Lay the banana slices in a single layer in your air fryer basket, making sure they don’t overlap.
  2. Air fry for 10–14 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  3. The chips are ready when golden brown and crisp at the edges. Some may need an extra 2–3 minutes depending on thickness and air fryer model.
  4. Let the chips cool on a wire rack for 5–10 minutes to crisp up further.

Notes

Store leftover banana chips in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days. For longer storage, refrigerate, but note they may lose their crispiness. Slicing bananas evenly ensures consistent cooking. Consider adding a pinch of sea salt to enhance sweetness. Experiment with spices like nutmeg or ginger for a twist.
