Air Fryer Bananas

Equipment

• 1 Air Fryer

• Ingredients

  • 4 medium bananas
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • Instructions

    1. Begin by peeling and cutting ripe bananas lengthwise with a sharp knife. Using a paper towel to wipe off any excess skin from banana. Place banana slices on a cutting board in a single layer.
    2. Place butter in a medium saucepan over low heat or melt butter in microwave in a microwave safe dish.
    3. In a small mixing bowl, combine the cinnamon and brown sugar. Take each individual banana slice and coat with butter. Then spoon sugar and cinnamon mixture over the top of each banana slice.
    4. • Next, lightly mist basket with cooking spray or line air fryer basket with parchment paper. Place bananas slices into the air fryer basket, without overlapping.
       • Air fry at 380 degrees F for 6-8 minutes, gently turning the banana slices lengthwise halfway through the cooking process to keep ingredients on top of bananas. Air Fry until they are golden brown and then serve warm.

       Notes

       Ripe bananas are best for this recipe because they will be easier to slice, which helps them cook more evenly. Overripe bananas will be too mushy and will have a harder time carnalizing.

       You don’t have to add cinnamon and sugar to your bananas, as they have a natural sweetness with sugars, but we like to have that little extra flavor! If you want to leave sugar mixture off, just brush the banana slices with coconut oil or melted butter.
