Ingredients:

• 2 firm, ripe bananas (peeled and sliced into thin rounds, about ⅛ inch thick)
• 1 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil
• 1 tbsp white sugar (or coconut sugar for a healthier option)
• ½ tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions:

1. Slice the Bananas: Carefully peel the bananas and slice them into thin, even rounds to ensure consistent cooking. Aim for slices about ⅛ inch thick.
2. Prepare the Coating: In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and sugar. Brush the banana slices lightly with melted butter or coconut oil, then sprinkle them evenly with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and let it preheat for 3-5 minutes.
4. Cook the Banana Chips: Arrange the banana slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap. If necessary, cook in batches. Air fry the chips for 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through to achieve even crispiness. Monitor them closely during the last few minutes to prevent overcooking.
5. Cool and Enjoy: Once cooked, transfer the banana chips to a wire rack to cool completely. As they cool, they’ll become even crispier. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to two days.
