Cinnamon-Sugar Banana Chips
These cinnamon-sugar banana chips are a quick, crunchy snack perfect for any time of day, made easily in an air fryer.
Ingredients
For the banana chips
- 2 pieces ripe bananas Firm ripe with brown speckles is best.
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar Or coconut sugar for less-refined sweetness.
- 1 teaspoon neutral oil Vegetable, avocado, or light olive oil, or cooking spray.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes.
- Slice the bananas into thin, even rounds — about 1/8-inch (3 mm) thick.
- Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl and stir until uniform.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray or brush it with a little oil.
- Arrange the banana slices in a single layer in the basket, avoiding overlap.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar evenly on top.
Cooking
- Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 15–20 minutes, flipping the chips gently halfway through.
- Watch from minute 12 onward; thinner slices and riper bananas will crisp faster.
Cooling
- Transfer the chips to a cooling rack or parchment-lined tray and let them cool completely.
Notes
Store cooled chips in an airtight container with a paper towel for up to 2-3 days. Revive crispness by air frying at 300°F (150°C) for 3-5 minutes.
