Description

These Cinnamon-Sugar Air Fryer Banana Chips are a delicious, crunchy snack made from ripe bananas coated with a sweet cinnamon-sugar mixture and perfectly crisped in the air fryer. A healthier alternative to traditional fried chips, they offer a quick and easy treat that’s lightly sweetened and seasoned, perfect for satisfying your snack cravings with natural fruit goodness and warm spices.

Ingredients

Scale

Banana Chips Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas (not overly ripe)
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into thin rounds about 1/8 inch thick. Slicing thinly is key to achieving crispy chips.
  2. Mix Cinnamon-Sugar Coating: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt if using. Set this mixture aside for coating.
  3. Coat the Banana Slices: Drizzle olive oil or melted coconut oil over banana slices and gently toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the slices and toss again to ensure each slice is well covered.
  4. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 3 to 5 minutes to ensure even cooking temperature.
  5. Air Fry the Banana Chips: Arrange the banana slices in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on your air fryer size. Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 10 to 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking to promote even crisping.
  6. Check for Crispiness: Monitor the chips closely towards the end of cooking to prevent burning. They will crisp more as they cool, so remove once golden and lightly crispy.
  7. Serve: Let chips cool slightly before serving to enjoy their full crunchy texture and warm cinnamon flavor.

Notes

  • Use bananas that are ripe but firm, not overly ripe or mushy, for the best texture.
  • Cut slices thinly and evenly to ensure uniform cooking and crispiness.
  • If you prefer a sweeter chip, increase sugar slightly to taste.
  • You can substitute olive oil with melted coconut oil for a different flavor profile.
  • Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket, which can lead to soggy chips.
  • Store cooled banana chips in an airtight container to maintain crispness.
