Ingredients
- Ripe but firm bananas
- Optional: cooking spray, melted butter, or coconut oil
- Optional seasonings: cinnamon, nutmeg, or brown sugar
- Optional toppings: honey, maple syrup, chopped nuts, or ice cream
Instructions
Peel and slice bananas in half lengthwise or into thick rounds.
- Lightly brush or spray with melted butter, coconut oil, or cooking spray (optional).
- Sprinkle with cinnamon, nutmeg, or brown sugar if desired.
- Preheat air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Place bananas in a single layer and air fry 4–6 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and tender.
- Serve warm with optional toppings such as honey, syrup, nuts, or ice cream.
Notes
- Use bananas that are ripe but still firm to avoid mushiness.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket for even caramelization.
- Best enjoyed fresh, as bananas soften when stored.
- For a sweeter dessert, sprinkle brown sugar before air frying.
- Pair with yogurt, pancakes, or oatmeal for a breakfast option.
