Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- Prepare the bananas: Peel the bananas and slice them into approximately 1/2 inch thick rounds to ensure even cooking and caramelization.
- Coat with cinnamon sugar: In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and granulated sugar together. Toss the banana slices gently in the cinnamon sugar mixture until they are evenly coated.
- Preheat the air fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to preheat for about 3 to 5 minutes to ensure the bananas cook evenly.
- Air fry the bananas: Arrange the coated banana slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overlapping. Air fry for 8 to 10 minutes, turning halfway through, until the bananas are golden brown and caramelized.
- Serve warm: Carefully remove the caramelized bananas from the air fryer and serve immediately as a warm dessert or snack. You may optionally add a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of honey for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for best sweetness and texture.
- Adjust the cinnamon sugar amount to taste.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket to ensure even caramelization.
- Serve immediately as air fried bananas are best enjoyed warm.
- For a healthier option, use a sugar substitute compatible with your dietary needs.
