🍌 How to Make Air Fryer Banana Chips (5 Easy Steps)
1. Slice the bananas
Peel bananas and slice them into thin, even rounds.
Thinner slices = crispier chips!
2. Toss with lemon juice
In a bowl, gently mix banana slices with lemon juice.
This keeps them from turning brown.
3. Add seasonings (optional)
Sprinkle with cinnamon or a tiny pinch of salt and toss lightly.
4. Air fry
- Preheat air fryer to 320°F / 160°C.
- Arrange slices in a single layer (no overlapping!).
- Cook for 10–15 minutes, flipping halfway.
- Watch closely at the end to avoid burning.
5. Cool & crisp
Take them out and let them cool completely.
They will get extra crispy as they cool!
💡 Pro Tips
- Use firm ripe bananas for best crunch.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket — cook in batches if needed.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days.
