Ingredients
  

For the Bananas
  • 2 pieces ripe bananas Choose bananas that are ripe but still firm for the best texture and sweetness.
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar Can be substituted with coconut sugar or maple syrup.
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Feel free to experiment with nutmeg for a spicier kick.
Optional Serving Suggestions
  • 1 cup yogurt For added creaminess.
  • 0.5 cup granola Sprinkle on top for extra crunch.
  • 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips Melted for an indulgent touch.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by washing your ripe bananas and peeling them. Slice the bananas into roughly uniform pieces, about half an inch thick.
  2. In a mixing bowl, gently toss the banana slices with brown sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon until evenly coated.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). This temperature is ideal for caramelizing the bananas.
  4. Carefully layer the seasoned banana slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  5. Cook the bananas in the air fryer for approximately 8–10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  6. Once cooking time is up, check the banana slices for golden brown color and soft texture.
  7. Remove the caramelized banana slices from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
