🍌 Air Fryer Banana Chips

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe but firm bananas (not overly ripe or mushy)

• 1 teaspoon coconut oil or olive oil (optional, for crispiness)

• Pinch of salt (optional)

• Optional: cinnamon or sugar for a sweet twist

Instructions:

1. Prep the bananas:
   Peel the bananas and slice them very thinly (about 1/8 inch or less) using a sharp knife or mandoline.

2. Oil and season:
   Toss the banana slices lightly with oil and a pinch of salt or your favorite seasoning.

3. Arrange in air fryer:
   Lay banana slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they don’t overlap (you may need to do batches).

4. Air fry:
   Cook at 320°F (160°C) for 10–15 minutes, flipping halfway through. Keep a close eye—they can burn quickly near the end.

5. Cool:
   Remove and let banana chips cool completely to crisp up. They will get crunchier as they cool.

📝 Tips:

• Slice as thin and uniform as possible for even cooking.

• If you want sweeter chips, sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar before cooking.

• Store cooled chips in an airtight container to keep crisp.
