Cinnamon-Sugar Air Fryer Banana Chips (Print version)
Thin banana slices air fried low until crisp, then tossed with cinnamon sugar for a sweet homemade snack.
# Ingredients:
For the banana chips
01 -
2 firm ripe bananas, sliced into 1/8-inch rounds
02 -
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
03 -
1 teaspoon neutral oil spray or melted coconut oil, for finishing
For the cinnamon sugar
04 -
1 tablespoon cane sugar or granulated sugar
05 -
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
06 -
1 small pinch fine salt
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the air fryer to 250°F. If your model does not go that low, use the lowest setting and check the chips early.
02 -
Cut the bananas into even 1/8-inch rounds. Keep the slices as consistent as possible so they dry at the same pace.
03 -
Lay the slices on a board or plate and brush both sides lightly with lemon juice. Use just enough to coat the surface without making them wet.
04 -
Arrange the banana slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry for 22-30 minutes, flipping once halfway through and removing any smaller chips that dry early.
05 -
Move the chips to a wire rack and cool for 10 minutes. They will crisp more as they cool.
06 -
Mix the sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl. Mist the cooled chips very lightly with oil, then toss gently with the cinnamon sugar until coated.
# Good to know:
01 -
Best texture is the day they are made.
02 -
Cook time varies by air fryer model and banana slice thickness.
03 -
Use firm ripe bananas, not soft overripe bananas.
