Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the Bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into approximately 1/4 inch thick rounds to ensure even cooking.
- Toss with Oil and Spices: In a mixing bowl, gently toss the banana slices with the vegetable oil, ground cinnamon, and granulated sugar until evenly coated.
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes to ensure it reaches the optimal temperature.
- Air Fry Bananas: Arrange the coated banana slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they do not overlap to allow air circulation. Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the bananas are golden and slightly crispy.
- Serve: Carefully remove the bananas from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving as a tasty snack or dessert.
Notes
- For extra sweetness, drizzle honey over the bananas after air frying.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking.
- Adjust the cinnamon and sugar quantities according to your taste preference.
- Use firm yet ripe bananas to prevent mushy texture.
